The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC) final report called attention to the damage induced by government policies and practices and outlined a pathway toward reconciliation in which education and child welfare system reforms play a central role. Drawing from 61 interviews with teachers and parents of Indigenous children in Alberta, this paper addresses the question: what do intersections between schooling and child welfare systems contribute to prospects for meaningful reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in Canada? Findings suggest that, despite formal commitments to acknowledge and address colonial legacies of residential schooling, obligations to fulfill state child welfare and educational objectives continue to situate schools, for many Indigenous families, as "dangerous places."
加拿大真相与和解委员会（TRC）的最终报告引起了人们对政府政策和实践造成的损害的关注，并概述了一条和解之路，其中教育和儿童福利制度改革发挥着核心作用。本文借鉴了对艾伯塔省 61 名土著儿童的教师和家长的访谈，探讨了这样一个问题：学校教育系统和儿童福利系统的交叉点对加拿大土著居民和非土著居民之间实现有意义的和解有何贡献？研究结果表明，尽管有正式承诺承认和解决住宿学校的殖民遗留问题，但履行国家儿童福利和教育目标的义务仍然使学校对许多土著家庭来说成为“危险的地方”。
