Summary:
"
Canada
's
Residential
Schools
: The
Métis
Experience
focuses on an often-overlooked element of
Canada
's
residential
school history.
Canada
's
residential
school system was a partnership between the federal government and the churches. Since the churches wished to convert as many Aboriginal children as possible, they had no objection to admitting
Métis
children. At Saint-Paul-des-Métis in Alberta, Roman Catholic missionaries established a
residential
school specifically for
Métis
children in the early twentieth century, while the Anglicans opened hostels for
Métis
children in the Yukon in the 1920s and the 1950s. The federal government policy on providing schooling to
Métis
children was subject to constant change. It viewed the
Métis
as members of the 'dangerous classes,' whom the
residential
schools
were intended to civilize and assimilate. This view led to the adoption of policies that allowed for the admission of
Métis
children at various times. However, from a jurisdictional perspective, the federal government believed that the responsibility for educating and assimilating
Métis
people lay with provincial and territorial governments. When this view dominated, Indian agents were often instructed to remove
Métis
children from
residential
schools
. Because provincial and territorial governments were reluctant to provide services to
Métis
people, many
Métis
parents who wished to see their children educated in
schools
had no option but to try to have them accepted into a
residential
school. As provincial governments slowly began to provide increased educational services to
Métis
students after the Second World War,
Métis
children lived in residences and
residential
schools
that were either run or funded by provincial governments. As this
volume
demonstrates the
Métis
experience
of
residential
schooling in
Canada
is long and complex, involving not only the federal government and the churches, but provincial and territorial governments. Much remains to be done to identify and redress the impact that these
schools
had on
Métis
children, their families, and their community."--Provided by publisher.
