PD day

      Today we were fortunate enough to participate in a PD day about Residential Schools held by the QSO.  Interestingly both members of the QSO were from the Maritimes!  There is a lot of Nova Scotians up here now! It was fascinating to be part of the discussion because it involved a room of people from the South, from the North, people who had been in residential schools and people who had stayed back during those times. It's hard to believe that these events occurred such a short time ago that I would be able to sit and hear first hand accounts of what it was like. It was surreal for me, and I feel that those events need to be shared more among the general public of Canada.
