A Mi’kmaq family says more needs to be done to help residential school survivors, especially elders facing institutional care – this time in an old age home.
First Nation leaders say the compensation for survivors doesn’t address their healthcare needs later in life.
APTN’s Trina Roache has the story.
Very correct so many issues as a result, that continue in later years. It becomes very difficult for many including myself. Such poor plannning and involvement by those who brokered this deal for us. I do agree this needs to be looked into to assist survivors, who are suffering from poor health today unnecessarily.
