Too right it took long enough.

There are still Canadians who believe the schools were all right, and that the horrible things that were done to those children never happened, or within the standards of the day for schools. They point to the horrors of their own school days, as most of us over fifty can, but fail to take into account that while we may have faced the strap, and a few teachers who were sadistic bullies, and our parents may have had the Gaelic or the French beaten out of them, we still had our parents for final recourse and weren't prisoners of an evil system that punished us for the crime of being who we were after virtually stealing us away from our homes and moms and dads.

Church and government, hand in hand. No good ever comes of that, IMO.
