Monument will tour Vancouver Island beginning at Port Hardy on June 16.
A memorial monument for the children who attended residential schools is starting a tour of the Island beginning in Port Hardy on Friday.
The monument is topped with a seven-foot raven looking down the centre toward an upside-down cross, which has a maple leaf, RCMP and NWMP, for Northwest Mounted Police, carved inside. Hunt said he included these because they are the organizations that participated in the residential school system. After carving, the entire monument was painted black “to show the dark history” of residential schools, he said, and orange lines were added around faces carved into the monument.
