Justice, Truth, and Reconcilation
Yesterday, the social justice and the common good class heard eye opening stories about poverty and injustice in Saskatchewan.

We all agreed that more education is needed in order for Aboriginal survivors to find peace and for non-Aboriginal Canadians to confront this horrid colonial legacy.

What more can (and should) be done for a more just future?
