lives of the Natives.
The Native Reserve System impacted the Natives in several ways, One being their
major environment change. Much of the land they received was not exactly the best for growing
crops in and many troubles came with lack of food. With this, the Natives' spiritual and medical
instruments were taken away from them. This caused a major decrease in population as they
became sick easily and died. Another way is how children were taken from the reserves and put
into Church-run residential schools. These schools forbid the children from contacting their
parents, speaking their native language, practicing their religion and wearing the traditional
clothing. At the reserves, the Natives were being completely controlled by the government,
ranging from changing their marriage and religious rules and having to ask for permission about
every little thing.
