I was living in Manitou (Rainy River First Nations) when the horrible things that Jim Cardy did came to light. I grew up with several of the girls he abused and saw the effect it had on them and the community. It divided a lot of people because we found out that he had been fired from his previous job for THE SAME THING and Weechi STILL hired him to look after vulnerable girls and children. I have so many personal stories of other incidents with Weechi and my family as well and Leona McGinnis knew of so much horrible abuse that was happening under her eye that she purposefully swept under the rug, letting it continue to happen to our children. The amount of children and parents suffering that Weechi has on their hands is horrifically abundant. I can only imagine how many other people that haven’t spoken up there really are. Thank you so much for this documentary, we need this to be known 😢
This is so wrong on the highest levels of humanity and MUST BE STOPPED. This is why drug and alcohol abuse in later years ends up killing more young people unnecessarily and is so very sad----my prayers for ALL~

Also, keep fighting, Heather! You’re helping break the cycle for you and your kids and that is amazing! I hope you get some justice and Miigwetch for sharing your stories. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My heart breaks for all those suffering from the trauma they carry from the past. Thank you for bringing light to this and exposing organizations that are in place to help ppl that are doing the opposite!
There’s a Tribal counsel Called Wendigo over seeing 10 or more First Nations too in Ontario Wasn’t long ago when Bad n worst things allowed to happen within the communities Financial Audit needs to be done n A thoroughly investigation with all Departments 🙏🙏🙏
10:43 I hate to be pedantic, but naloxone is not adrenaline. Did Tracy mean that she was experiencing the adrenaline dump associated with emergencies??
Why their family system is broken . As an immigrant our family is everything and we live together. We look after our elders and our divorce rate is very low . I would recommend First Nation woman to try out immigrant man . ❤❤
First Nation Women don’t need saving by immigrant men. First Nation Women are on their own paths of diverse life journeys with free-will, self-respect, and love, no matter what we go through, especially with our own people!❤️💕♥️💙💜💔💗🖤💛💖💞💚❣️💓😻💘
The Canadian system targets indigenous communities and family systems to break their bonds so that they can rob their land resources. Its really that simple. They systematically destroyed the indigenous peoples. THat now the indigenous people would often hurt their own people now.
How are you in Canada if you don't understand the true history of this country. Take a few Indigenous Studies university classes and educate yourself. Indigenous people have been through atrocities you obviously know nothing about!

Its getting harder, and harder, to refer to the FFRR district as "home".
