    Why do we even have a Governor General and wowza what’s very significant her salary $$$ ! And why do some indigenous communities still don’t have clean drinking water she might want to take the lead on this one 🤔

      @dinkster1729 Місяць тому

      She said earlier in the conversation that she was a Canadian. She was responding to the absurd idea that she couldn't represent Quebecers because she can't speak French very well. She is a Quebecer so, of course, she represents Quebecers. Maybe, the Quebecers that Francophone Quebecers want to ignore though or get to speak French by hook or by crook.

      There's a report in today's Toronto Star about the slow work of assembling the records available about each individual. Better funding might speed up the work. A demand that the various churches release their records might help as well. I know when I tried to access my OSR at my local high school in Kingston, Ontario, I was told that the records are only available for 5 years and then, they are destroyed, except for one's report card marks. I photocopied my kids' records the school held. There may not be much to discover about these kids.
