Its strength is that it is the Commission's own official final report, drawing on years of hearings and documentary research mandated by the Canadian government. Its limit is that an official commission report reflects the mandate and evidence the Commission itself gathered and is not a substitute for survivors' own individual testimony, much of which it draws on but does not fully reproduce.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (18 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsCitationAuthorWell-attestedTruth and Reconciliation Commission of CanadaPublication YearWell-attested2015URLWell-attestedhttps://publications.gc.ca/site/eng/9.800288/publication.htmlSource TypeWell-attestedgovernmentAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1Reliability tier 1: the Commission's own official final report, drawing on years of mandated hearings and documentary research.NotesWell-attestedAbout 150,000 children passed through the residential school system.Cross-Tradition ConnectionsAssociated WithCanada, Countries Well-attested This source names Canada directly: "Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, the Commission's own 2015 official final report, documents that about 150,000 children passed through Canada's residential school system."Source Honouring the Truth, Reconciling for the Future: Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of CanadaTruth and Reconciliation Commission of Canadatier 1Claims Backed By This Source (18 claims)This source backs 18 claims across the atlas.
