LETHBRIDGE-An effort to keep some claims out of court may see a small number of residential school students from either the Blood or Peigan reserves enter an alternative dispute resolution program with the Anglican Church of Canada.

Representatives from St. Paul residential school on the Blood Reserve met with representatives from the Anglican Church and the Canadian Department of Justice in Lethbridge in September to discuss taking part in a national pilot project that would see a negotiated settlement for wrongs perpetuated while in attendance at the school.

CALGARY -Only Drunks and Children Tell the Truth, a play by Drew Hayden Taylor, will run from Jan. 19 to 29 at the Pumphouse Theatre in Calgary. The play is presented by Crazy Horse Theatre, the mandate of which is to run plays that will reflect the diversity and reality of Aboriginal people.

The play is based on a young girl who was taken from her biological family when she was six months old. It's about the impact of a scoop-up adoption that happened in Ontario when Aboriginal children were removed from their homes and placed in foster homes.
