Seven rallies are planned around the country today to draw attention to recent news about nutritional experiments conducted on aboriginals.Planner Wab Kinew from the Onigaming First Nation says he hopes the events will help people express their sorrow and show support for efforts to get the federal government to release more documents to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
The Cecillia Jeffrey residential school in Kenora has been identified as one of the schools in northwestern Ontario that carried out the experiments.
Ottawa has said it could take 40-million dollars and 10 years to find and digitize all the required records.
