Dennis Franklin Cromarty High School, where six of the dead students were enrolled, gets 11,000 Canadian dollars per pupil. Not every high school student on a reserve in northwestern Ontario attends Cromarty, or D.F.C., as it is commonly known. Two cousins worked at the high school, and an uncle coordinated programs for indigenous students in the city. The jury also heard how at least one other indigenous student had been assaulted by young white men and thrown into the river. PhotoWhen his son started attending high school in Thunder Bay, Mr. Morriseau said in an interview, he had little concern.
