Which is why, I suppose, they call it "common experience' payments - for any/all who attended residential schools and regardless of their experiences.
I have, first hand, seen how those who have received payments have used the money - I wonder how the government will compensate for those who end up dying after receiving such payments, or if that will end up being an expectation 50 years from now.
