Quote:
"The star of this doc [We Can't Make the Same Mistake Twice] is Cindy Blackstock, the executive director of the Caring Society, who is shown year after year fighting for a better outcome for First Nations children. But it is David Nahwegahbow, lawyer for the Assembly of First Nations, who summarizes the film's impact when he says that Aboriginal people have no understanding of an agreement in which all the other party does is attempt to wiggle through loopholes."
