In 1992, as pastor in Port Alberni, British Columbia, he discovered a history of atrocity suggesting genocide in his church’s residential school that had taken place for more than a century. Such had been the case in 140 such “schools” across Canada, which have been run by the major churches. Refusing to remain silent, he was discharged by his church and defrocked. For more than twenty years, he has advocated and worked internationally toward justice for indigenous people, children and other victims of Church and State. In 2015, he was nominated for the Nobel Peace prize.
Samuel Wedge is an autobiographical novel based on his story.
Kevin Annett has produced and directed Unrepentant, an internationally award-winning feature-length film and has produced three nonfiction books, one of which, Love and Death in the Valley, was published by AuthorHouse in 2002 and is still selling twelve years later. He is a co-founder of the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State (www.itccs.org) and common law courts of justice in many countries.view less
