Scope and contentFile contains a presentation by MF. MF discusses how she dreaded the arrival of the hospital ship, the C.D. Howe, at her community in the High Arctic. MF also discusses the degrading and culturally innapropriate way in which the medical staff treated the women and girls, and how this caused considerable angst within the community. MF discusses some of the emotional scars she and her family have due to the High Arctic Relocation and the government's treatment of her people.
