March 26, 2025
As work continues in the search for Indigenous children in unmarked burial sites at former residential schools, survivors and elders from First Nations across Alberta met with researchers to share their stories at a conference in Calgary.
The National Advisory Committee on Residential Schools, Missing Children and Unmarked Burials held its final knowledge-sharing session since its formation.
Nearly four years ago, many communities across Canada grieved after learning more than 200 unmarked graves were believed to be identified outside the former Kamloops Indian residential school.
The Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc nation has not shared if human remains have been recovered, and the nation now refers to the discoveries as 215 anomalies.
