Peter Henderson Bryce (August 17, 1853 – January 15, 1932) was an official of the Ontario Health Department, Canada. He released his famous book in 1922 titled ''The Story of a National Crime: Being a Record of the Health Conditions of the Indians of Canada from 1904 to 1921'', which documented mistreatment of the aboriginals in Canada.〔http://www.trc.ca/websites/trcinstitution/index.php?p=3〕 Bryce was hired by Indian Affairs Department in Ottawa to report on the health conditions of the Canadian residential school system in western Canada and British Columbia. His report was never released by the government but was published by Bryce in 1922 as a book. Bryce claimed that Indian children were deprived and unhealthy in the residential schools and on Indian reservations and suggested improvements to national indigenous policy.〔http://www.archive.org/stream/storyofnationalc00brycuoft#page/n3/mode/2up〕 He cited an average mortality rate of between 14% to 24% at the schools and a shocking 42% infant mortality rate on the reserves, this due to sick children being sent home to die.〔http://www.legacyofhope.ca/about-residential-schools/conditions-mistreatment〕 He also alleged that staff and church officials were withholding and falsifying the records of children's death.〔http://hiddennolonger.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/No-Longer-Hidden-1-searchable.pdf pg.60〕 He appealed his forced retirement from the Civil Service in 1921 and was denied, subsequently publishing his suppressed report condemning the treatment of the Indigenous at the hands of the BNA.〔https://archive.org/stream/storyofnationalc00brycuoft/storyofnationalc00brycuoft_djvu.txt〕 == See also == *List of Canadian residential schools *United States Indian Boarding School *New Zealand Native schools *Indian Residential Schools Truth and Reconciliation Commission *Canada -Institutional racism 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Bryce」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
