That link mentions the Cowessess First Nation, with the site at Marieval in Saskatchewan. Same one I already mentioned.

Thank you for correcting me. I was thinking of Brandon which is in Manitoba. Graves there as well.

104 graves.

Manitoba First Nation is mentioned, site seems to be Brandon.
But specific First Nation seems to be Sioux Valley Dakota Nation.

If anything good can be said about the events in Canada is that it is forcing the US to face its own shameful past.

I guess, unlike prison, "school" sounds so benign. But unlike prison, residential schools, "reformatories", and mental institutions .... there was no oversight and no means of getting out except escape.

What better way to destroy whole cultures than taking the children away to "teach" them how inferior they were.

Mixed blood children were taken into these places as well. My own family is a perfect example of it. My grandmother and her sisters and brother would have grown up hearing "half-breed" usually proceeded by dirty just like full blood Native American children.

And as I said look to the US, Sig. The US is not innocent in this horror show.

You're preaching to the choir, BRENDA. The USA has its own history of genocide and broken promises to confront.

I've often posted that the best thing for the native Americans to have done with the white settlers was to shoot them (with arrows, from behind trees) and keep on shooting until there was no one left alive to take word back to the homelandabout that verdant land waiting to be settled. Unfortunately, some of the natives were much more humane than the colonizers who came to their shores.

Are you saying this includes the 182? Or this is separate from the 182?

Let him say to himself: I am a part of the herd and a coward. It’s all the same to me as long as I’m fed and kept warm.

Another 200 potential unmarked graves found on the site of the former residential school at Kamloops. This announcement was made today by the chief of the Kamloops first nation. She had 3 elders with her that spoke of their time at that place. 2 Knowledge Keepers and 1 Language Keeper.

Radar used on the old orchard that was on the grounds because in the late 1990s and early 2000s, a child's tooth and rib bone were found by someone walking the grounds.

So far 2 acres of the total 200 acres at that site have been searched.

Archaeologists will be coming in to help map and possibly exhume the site.

This is getting worse and worse, isn't it?

It makes me heartsick to know this has happened.
