Chief Cadmus Delorme: The Future of Truth and Reconciliation

Generation Y inherited the truth of the 60s scoop, residential schools, and treaties, they did not create it, but Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians have the responsibility of facing that truth. Many generations of Indigenous Canadians have been living in a sort of horizontal survival mode - because their vertical lineage leads straight back to those truths. Chief Cadmus Delorme is currently Chief of the Cowessess First Nation and he spoke at The Walrus Talks: What’s Next? In Toronto.
