The Prime Minister's Apology

Yesterday, Prime Minister Trudeau apologized to Jewish Refugees for turning away the MS St. Louis (the boat one of the characters from the book Refugee was on) in 1939. We took all the intermediates to hear the apology live. It was pretty incredible, almost 80 intermediate students silent listening to the wrongs of Canada's past and our current Prime Minister trying to make amends and call youth to action to make Canada better for future people seeking refuge in our country.
