More than half of Canadians say they want more evidence to prove that soil anomalies found at former residential schools were unmarked graves.
The Tk’emlups te Secwepemc First Nation released a report in May 2021 that said the remains of 215 children were found using ground-penetrating radar around a former Indian Residential School in Kamloops, B.C. However, no excavations have been conducted at the site despite Ottawa budgeting $238.8 million for the Residential Schools Missing Children Community Support program in 2022.
