It is because the minister is arbitrarily excluding many of the survivors. She is refusing to let the survivors know if their claims were breached by the government's actions, and she is refusing to provide access to the evidence that her officials suppressed. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6577396\" data-originallang=\"en\">This <a data-HoCid=\"233806\" href=\"/politicians/carolyn-bennett/\" title=\"Carolyn Bennett\">minister</a> has already spent over $3 million fighting these survivors. When is she going to end these toxic legal games and just do what is right by the survivors of St. Anne's residential school? She should do the right thing. </p>",

C'est parce que la ministre exclut arbitrairement un grand nombre de survivants. Elle refuse de leur dire si le gouvernement a viol\u00e9 leur droit de revendiquer des r\u00e9parations et elle refuse de leur donner acc\u00e8s aux preuves que ses fonctionnaires ont supprim\u00e9es.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6577396\" data-originallang=\"en\">La <a data-HoCid=\"233806\" href=\"/politicians/carolyn-bennett/\" title=\"Carolyn Bennett\">ministre</a> a d\u00e9j\u00e0 d\u00e9pens\u00e9 plus de 3 millions de dollars pour lutter contre les survivants.
