Calgary family speaks out against Indigenous racism, neglect and discrimination in healthcare system

CALGARY

When Carolyn Wagner joined the Mounties in 1986, the iconic bright-red serge and hat symbolized a path out of an unsatisfactory career with the Canadian military not the dark history many Indigenous communities have associated with the RCMP.
The role the Mounties played in Canada s residential schooling system, for example, is not what we were taught in depot, Wagner said, referring to her training years. Rather, the RCMP presented itself as saviours of the Indigenous people. ....

Before the first European contact of 1492, there were approximately 60 million people living in the Americas. Today, sources such as the
Daily Herald tell us that there are 562 Native American tribes within the United States alone. It remains a mystery what happened to these cultures between 1492 and now, for a variety of reasons.
