In reply to Anne Noonan.

Chi Miigwetch for your kind note, Anne. Thank you for circulating the article to your contacts. I’m glad that there are ongoing updates. I know many Survivors are frustrated by the length of the process and COVID has increased those challenges. It’s great this journalist lifted the curtain by interviewing Steven Cooper, one of the main lawyers in the class action. I know I learned a lot about how all this works. All my best, Danielle

Hi Danielle Miigwetch for your thorough research and writing on this complex subject.I have shared this article with my Inuk friends and others in the NWT who may have friends or acquaintances that are witness to this tragic history.I am also looking for possible witnesses from the Kaniai (Blood Tribe)where there was an “Indian Hospital” and others from the Dakota Nation. Take care, Anne

Comment on How to Find Camsell Hospital Patient Records (Part 2) by Danielle Metcalfe-Chenail

In reply to Eva JANVIER.

That sounds like it was a very difficult time, and I’m so glad you survived. Have you tried doing the Access to Information request with Library and Archives Canada to see if they can get those records for you? If you need help, please contact http://www.truthyeg.com and the Indigenous/settler researchers there can help step you through that process. If they don’t have the time or resources right now, I will walk you through the process to the best of my ability. Sincerely, Danielle

I need my records from 1957 or 1958 or 1959. I was hospitalized with appendicitis and put in a coma for months. I lived here at the hospital with my Doctor Odanaho who was the surgeon. Today I need to prove what year I was there please and thank you

My grandmother was a nurse there in the late 40’s. I have found items I’m not sure the story behind why she had one specific thing I found.
If you know who would look at it I would be so appreciative.
Thank you
Tracy

You can always share anything you find on here! Much of my recent posts have been shared content from news outlets too. I think it’s so important to keep the information open, transparent, and accessible.
