Mr. John: I was raised by my parents and elders and others in the community; I went to an Indian residential school, as a child to a Catholic high school.

Around the 1950s—I am not sure of the exact date—the federal government decided to build what we called the Indian residential school there, on the edge of a lake.

Items affecting a single organization are the following: $550 million to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada for contributions for agricultural risk management under the Farm Income Protection Act; $225.3 million to the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency to address operational workload pressures and pursue revenue generation initiatives; $221.9 million to Transport Canada to provide assistance to air carriers for losses incurred due to the temporary closure of Canadian air space, and additional payments to VIA Rail in support of an expanded capital investment program; $152.5 million to National Defence for additional costs associated with NATO Flying Training in Canada and other professional services; $114.8 million to Fisheries and Oceans ...[+++]Canada for the Fisheries Access program; $109.7 million to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research for program enhancements; $97.1 million to the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade for contributions to provinces related to softwood lumber export controls; $74.5 million to Indian and Northern Affairs Canada for the settlement of specific claims with the Horse Lake First Nation and the Fishing Lake First Nation; $60 million to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to strengthen and revitalize radio and television programs; $57.7 million to Health Canada in support of federal hepatitis C initiatives; $57.3 million to the Cape Breton Development Corporation for additional costs, including workforce adjustments; $53 million to the Privy Council Office for the Office of Indian Residential Schools Resolution of Canada; and $50 million to the Canadian International Development Agency for programming against hunger and malnutrition through international development and nutritional institutions.

However, there is a current matter that calls not for rejoicing but for creativity — the legacy of the Indian residential schools, which not only the United Church but the Anglican, Roman Catholic and Presbyterian Churches are seeking to address.
