Residential Schools: The Red Lake Story 
NOW ON LINE

The history of Canada’s residential schools was a dark time in this country’s history, but one that needs to be understood to inspire healing and compassion.

“Residential Schools: The Red Lake Story” was created in the Fall of 2006 as a physical exhibit to complement the national exhibition entitled “Where are the Children? Healing the Legacy of Residential Schools.”

Due to the overwhelming response and letters of encouragement, Residential Schools: The Red Lake Story has now been turned into an on line exhibit.

Special thanks to the Canadian Heritage Information Network for supporting this project through the Community Memories Program. To view the physical exhibit, which has already travelled to Dryden and Atikokan, visit the Fort Frances Museum.
