    3 RCMP officers won't face internal probe in 'tortured' man case

    Three RCMP officers slammed by a judge for deliberately losing or
    destroying video surveillance tape alleged to show the "torture" of a
    handcuffed man with a Taser will not face an internal code of conduct
    investigation.

    Senior Mounties have reviewed the judge's ruling, and the officer's
    loss or destruction of evidence was not considered serious enough for
    such an investigation, RCMP spokesperson Annie Linteau says.

    Instead, at least one of the officers would be given "guidance" as a form of discipline, said Linteau.

    "In that case, the member needed some guidance ... so that this
    would not happen again," said Linteau. "Certainly, it is a form of
    discipline.

    "The matter was treated as a performance issue with appropriate
    guidance, which will apparently address those particular members'
    shortcomings in that particular case," she said.

    Canada to apologize for aboriginal abuses

    Canada's Prime Minister on Wednesday will officially apologize to
    natives for more than a century of abuses at residential schools set up
    to assimilate its indigenous peoples.

    "Aboriginal Canadians have
    been waiting for a very long time to hear an apology from the
    Parliament of Canada," Stephen Harper said on Tuesday, previewing what
    would come.

    "I hope that we will begin the process of healing and
    reconciliation," he told parliament, which suspended all business on
    Wednesday for this solemn occasion.

    Beginning in 1874, 150,000
    Indian, Inuit and Metis children in Canada were forcibly enrolled in
    the 132 boarding schools run by Christian churches on behalf of the
    federal government in an effort to integrate them into society.

    Survivors allege abuse by headmasters and teachers, who stripped them of their culture and language.

    Canada hears of native abuse pain

    A truth and reconciliation commission examining what native leaders
    call one of the most tragic and racist chapters in Canada's history has
    begun.

    The commission will study Canada's decades-long policies that removed
    Aboriginal children from their families to force Christianity upon
    them.

    The state-funded religious schools were often the scenes of horrific physical and sexual abuse.

    The commission has a five-year mandate to detail the abuses.

    From the 19th Century until the 1970s, more than 150,000
    aboriginal children were required to attend Christian schools in an
    attempt to rid them of their native cultures and languages and
    integrate them into society.
