One thing at a time, I suppose. Although in both the case of the internments and the residential schools, these were actions and wrongs committed against Canadians (as opposed to would-be immigrants). Admittedly, I know little to nothing of your Sikh example so I ought to refrain from commenting further.
I read somewhere that there was supposed to be an official apology issued this year as well as some kind of monetary compensation, which I assume would go to a fund or something.
