“Montreal Institute for the Deaf and Mute”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Montreal Institute for the Deaf and Mute was a boarding school operated by the Clerics of St Viateur between 1848 and 1983 in Montreal, Quebec.^[1]

History

The Montreal Institute for the Deaf was founded as L'Institute Catholique des Sourds-Muets^[2] (The Catholic School for Deaf Boys) in 1848^[3] in Faubourg, Quebec, a neighbourhood in the northeast corner of Montreal.^[4] In 1850, the Institute moved to the Mile End area, at the corner of Boulevard St-Joseph and Rue Saint Dominique in Montreal.^[4]^[6] By 1887,^[5] workshops for teaching the trades such as bookbinding, shoemaking and printing had been built within the school.^[6]

In the 1921, the Institute moved^[7] to a new building at 7400 Boulevard Saint-Laurent^[8] in Montreal.^[9] The building is now listed as a heritage building by the City of Montreal.^[10]

In 1983, the Institute ceased teaching at the 7400 Boulveard Saint-Laurent location.^[11]

The following year, the Institute Catholique des Sourds-Muets changed its name to L'Institut Raymond-Dewar (English:The Raymond Dewar Institute).^[12]

Sexual abuse settlement

In 2012, 60 former students of the Institute filed a class action suit claiming they were sexually abused by priests in the school.^[13] The initial class action was joined by other former students, bringing the total number of plaintiffs claiming abuse to 150 students with claims of abuse ranging between 1942 and 1982.^[16] The claims by former students were not legally contested by the Clerics of St Viateur.^[14] This led to a settlement in 2016 of $30 million from the Clerics of St Viateur and The Raymond Dewar Institute.^[15]^[16] The settlement was the largest settlement ever awarded for a sexual abuse case in Quebec history.^[15]^[17]^[18] The settlement, authorized in the Superior Court of Quebec, provided for a payment of $20 million from the Canadian Clerics of St. Viateur, and $10 million from The Raymond Dewar Institute, the renamed version of the Institute adopted in 1984.^[19]^[20]^[21]
