Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
I can understand that Canadians have a lot of questions because this isn't a comfortable part of history that people want to easily admit to or, you know, start taking accountability or responsibility for because some of this happened so long ago.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
But I think the problem here is that we're going from one extreme to the other and that the actual conversations and the learning and the reconciliation that's supposed to happen in the middle is getting lost.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
And this just feels like it's there to provoke us because it's right before National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
And it feels like now is a time when controversy is something that sells online.
Jennifer LaewetzPANELIST
It's what gets people going.
Chris ValeGUEST

Chris ValeGUEST
Orange Shirt Day will be coming up too in September.
Chris ValeGUEST
And I was talking to a couple of people from reserves and stuff out here.
Chris ValeGUEST
And one lady yesterday, she talked about being a scoop 60 kid back in the day and kind of finding her way of adoption and things like that.
Chris ValeGUEST
So we were talking to some residential schools yesterday.
Chris ValeGUEST
So I know Orange Shirt Day kind of shines a light on that coming up in September.
Chris ValeGUEST
So that'd be one of my things to keep an eye out for.
Chris ValeGUEST
And, you know, always support Orange Shirt Day.
