Deadline looms for bands to enter day scholar residential school suit

First Nations' deadline to join a class action lawsuit for members who attended residential schools during the day is coming soon.

First Nations within communities that contained a residential school, and who had members attend a school, have until the end of February to decide whether or not they want to be part of the lawsuit.

This claim is different from the Residential Schools Class Action Settlement, which only compensated students who lived at residential schools.
