Abstract:
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada held its closing event in Ottawa from May 31 until June 3, 2015. On June 2, a summary of the Commissioners’ findings on Indian Residential Schools was released in an official ceremony that was broadcast on screen in major cities of the country. In Ottawa, starting on May 31, the calendar of events was dense, meaningful, and moving. It included community actions of remembering, reconciliation, learning, and celebration, which climaxed on June 3. This paper looks at the ground-breaking moment in Canadian contemporary history marked by the release of the TRC findings from the spatial location of Winnipeg.
