Why doesn't the video actually discuss what happened here? They say it holds a lot of stong history, that it's controversial, it's got a darker history than other schools and the new development will honour how it impacted Indigenous people. Tell everyone what happened here!
I visited once (it was long closed by then - we went in 2012 or 2013) Knowing the heavy history beforehand, still didn't prepare me for the very eerie/heavy feeling it casts over you. They certainly shouldn't be turning it into an apartment building, though. A large memorial garden would make more sense at the very least...
Sad to say my mother was a patient, 14 mos. She gave was pregnant. With twins, I survived. Apparently they removed , my twin. So sad, I'm on my healing journey. 58 yrs.old. they put me in a box, on a plane. Back to my community.
evenrocksgrow, I was born here in 1975, my mum was working their at the time with the first nations people, hence why she choose this place to birth me... The darkside was very apparent, and we are working on a book regards this (fiction based on truth)...
Leave it be. It's a insult you wana it to be turned into condos...why you think that will never happen.. you can't even get workers to stay on shift past an hour it's so fucking haunted
Was it the best place? No Was it the worst place? No Should things have been done differently when patients passed away? Absolutely Should the patients been buried in unmarked graves? Definitely not But you can’t say it’s worse then other hospitals. Gray Nuns, UofA, Royal Alex are Erie too. Hospitals are erie and uncomfortable places. Hopefully this never happens again and with the changing times, hopefully we can better improve our current system to a functional level
