So far they don't make it easy and they seem to be trying to play the waiting game. Perhaps hoping people will just give up. | |

Hey Mr Cucumber, welcome to the discussion page of the "Residential "school" Survivors' blog site... To answer your question, I've had my decision from the IAP process in my favor... it is unfortunate though that victims have to continue to wait for closure due to bureaucracy. This whole process can be quite difficult and traumatic for survivors, just by reopening old wounds and reliving the trauma over and over again. It is a shame that there is so much bureaucracy that must be navigated in order for victims of abuse to obtain some form of “justice”, especially considering that the abuse of children within Canadian Residential Schools has already been proven in the Court of Law. Putting victims through this drawn out process feels like insult added to injury.
Afterall, it is both closure and justice that is ultimately sought by victims going through this process.
