The gruesome discovery took decades and for some survivors of the Kamloops Indian Residential School in Canada, the confirmation that children as young as 3 were buried on school grounds crystallizes the sorrow they have carried all their lives

"I lost my heart, it was so much hurt and pain to finally hear, for the outside world, to finally hear what we assumed was happening there," said Harvey McLeod, who attended the school for two years in the late 1960s, in a telephone interview with CNN Friday."The story is so unreal, that yesterday it became real for a lot of us in this community," he said.

'Horrific chapter in Canadian history'"The news that remains were found at the former Kamloops residential school breaks my heart - it is a painful reminder of that dark and shameful chapter of our country's history. I am thinking about everyone affected by this distressing news. We are here for you," Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted Friday.

From a Kaitlin Shetler poem, written per gun love, but last stanza applies here too - ...and when constitutional rights become heavenly righteousness there’s no longer a need for satan because america runs hell just as well as him

Hey ChrisSa31098502 is Canada still number 1? Killing Indians and shit, I'm pretty sure you country is broke and running out of vaccines. Do you need the good Ole USA 🇺🇸 help. Canada is a welfare state.

Canadians are horrible.

Being quarantined because of pandemic have made $8,650 weekly with the amount of $900 i invested this is more than my usually weekly check All thanks goes to Terrycooleyon1

Shut up and move along, there is nothing to see here. It's only a normal White people habit of eliminating the Indigenous people. It's nothing new.

ronstor White people have done sh*t like this for centuries. The white devil was a native myth long before the white man came.

The crime might be the idea the children represent undocumented deaths. It’s wasn’t uncommon in those days to have unmarked graves. I think this highlights more concerns about allowing religious material or culture in any government institution.

Similar to Irish The Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home... I want to cry and rage in anger at the same time. Poor little people who have done nothing to deserve their fate.
