On his trip to Manitoulin Island, Ben Rowswell visited the Shingwauk Institute, a former residential school in Sault Ste. Marie. During his visit, he learned about the institute's history and its transition from a residential school to a center dedicated to healing and reconciliation. The institute now serves as a space for preserving Indigenous culture and education, hosting exhibits and events that highlight the stories and experiences of former students. Ben’s visit underscores the importance of acknowledging this painful chapter in Canadian history while supporting efforts toward understanding and reconciliation with Indigenous communities.
