Forgiveness Not an Option

The head of Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission says forgiveness is not an option for many residential school survivors.

Murray Sinclair says he's been travelling the country and says some survivors tell him there will never be any reconciliation or forgiveness for them.

The head of a national survivors group says that's not surprising.

Michael Cachagee says forgiveness was a concept taught to many by the very churches that ran the schools.
