      1. I see no mention of the part Anglican churches played running Residential Schools as Mohawk in Ontario

      2. HI Ann, thanks for your comment. To learn more about the Anglican Church in Ontario, it is best to contact either diocesan offices out there. The specific Dioceses in the province of Ontario are the Dioceses of Niagara, Diocese of Huron, Diocese of Toronto, Diocese of Ottawa, and Diocese of Ontario. They should be able to talk to you about the Anglican Church and the Residential Schools in the province, as well what the church is doing for reconciliation and healing

  2. I heard “Monster”, last year. I could clearly see the child. Today, on CBC radio, in the morning, I heard an interview with Mr. Saddleman. Then he read 2 other poems. They were so moving, touching, and hours later, have not left my mind. I thought, I want to read these, and read more. And I will go back to the archives and listen to him read again. I am so glad I looked up the name Road Warrior, just in case. It brought me to this site. Do you mail out copies of the book or it it available elsewhere?
