My Records, My Choice

National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation 

As you are no doubt aware, in 2017, the Supreme Court of Canada ordered that all of the confidential records relating to the claims for abuse made by former Indian Residential School students in the Independent Assessment Process under the IRSSA will be destroyed on September 19, 2027, unless the individual expressly consents to preserving their records or requests a copy of the records for themselves.

The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) has received very few inquiries from individuals or families about the options for preserving IAP records. Click “for more details”  to view a pamphlet that explains the choices for former students and provides phone numbers and websites for people to obtain more information. As noted in the pamphlet, you can obtain more IAP information online at www.MyRecordsMyChoice.ca.
The records that can be preserved are:
– IAP Application Form
–  Printed rrecord or voice recording of the testimony
–  Decision on the claim
If any member of your community is interested in learning more about preserving their records at the NCTR, we would be pleased to speak to them. They can reach us by calling us toll-free at 1-855-415-4534 or by email at NCTRrecords@umanitoba.ca .
