On June 3, 2015, Federal Court in Vancouver certified the residential school “Day Scholars” class-action lawsuit. Our Day Scholar Class action based upon the common experience of our great loss of our sacred languages and cultures as a result we were certified in federal court as day scholar class action. The TteS SFN & JBC Day Scholar Class Action is in federal court which means that all the day scholars and their descendants plus the 98 Bands that opted into our class action is included.
