This documentary, 'Finding Peter Bryce' was a labour of love.  While doing some research on his great-grandfather, Dr. Peter Bryce, Andy discovered that his great-grandfather had been an early whistleblower about the conditions in the Residential Schools.  Through Andy's and Cindy Blackstock's work, Peter received his golden whistle award posthumously - 109 years after he first published reports on the appalling conditions in residential schools.
