I agree with many posters that this should be a mandatory course in high school. The lack of aboriginal education in the school sector is appalling. The fact that I didn't learn about the residential school system until I chose to take an aboriginal sociology class in my second year of university which is completely unacceptable in my eyes.

Good on the idea, but it needs to be done at the high school level.
