This article also talks a bit about the apology made by Stephen Harper. This article also mentions that schools went against the idea of religious freedom and was meant to destroy the First nation's religion. If I were to go into the assimilation of religion this may be a good article.

This article compares the disappearance of Yemeni children in Israel with First Nation's residential schools. May have more focus on Israel so may not be a good article. However, possibly good to relate to another situation in the world.

Residential schools became places to be hated for their severe assimilation and abuse. Most what has truly happened has been lost due to many of the victims being left with some form of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. What caused these places of abuse and assimilation to be and what has happened to them? This essay hopes to help develop a better understanding for what caused the residential schools to come to fruition and create a small collection of details of what happened in the residential schools. Also, the essay looks towards some of the ways that the government has apologized and have yet to do, so as to reconcile themselves.
This article talks about the comparison of American and Canadian colonialism in comparison to the Holocaust. Mainly the article talks about whether it is right or not to do this comparison.
