Photo: For the child taken, for the parent left behind

The Cambridge Bay Wellness Centre unveiled this monument July 24 to mark the painful legacy of the federal government’s residential school system for aboriginal people. In this photo, Margo Neglak (left), who envisioned the project, represents parents. Steve Anavilok (centre) represents grandparents and Angel Kaosoni represents children.
