The author spent two years in Canada looking beneath its multicultural image. She meets people who were taken from their parents at dawn as children and sent to boarding schools, and who now call themselves survivors. She asks how such removals were possible, who blessed them, and why former heroes are being taken down from monuments and banknotes. It is a story of guilt and reconciliation, of crimes left unpunished.
