REALITY CHECK: Justin Trudeau, stop taking Indigenous kids to court.

Today, Justin Trudeau’s government is back in court fighting Indigenous children who are rightly seeking compensation for the trauma they suffered when they were taken away from their family.

A strange fact since the Prime Minister was recently suggesting the exact opposite was true.

"Despite what some say, we are not taking Indigenous children in court" - Justin Trudeau, June 4, 2021, CPAC.

Why do the Liberals continue to mislead the public on this issue? And more importantly, why don't they end their lawsuits immediately?

Reconciliation cannot occur while Justin Trudeau continues to drag Indigenous children who were taken away from their family through the courts.

First Nations deserve better.
