Indigenous Survivors of Federal Boarding Homes can now submit claims under the Percival settlement agreement

by Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada on Wednesday 21 August 2024 03:26 PM UTC+00 | Tags: statements
Today marks the beginning of implementation of the Federal Indian Boarding Homes (Percival) class action settlement agreement. This represents an important step on the path towards reconciliation with those Indigenous individuals who, as children and youth, were placed in federal boarding homes. We cannot undo the past, but we can do the right thing in acknowledging the truth and the harm caused and commit to never repeating these mistakes.
