"To honour the 215 children whose lives were taken at the former Kamloops residential school and all Indigenous children who never made it home, the survivors, and their families, I have asked that the Peace Tower flag and flags on all federal buildings be flown at half-mast," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Twitter on Sunday.
“When it was shared with me that these were children, our children, from our community...It was devastating,” she told Canadian news channel, CTV. Residential school survivor Betty Deer sits next to children's shoes, placed outside a church in Quebec as a tribute to the victims of residential schools."I've said before that the residential schools [were] a genocide of our people…here's just another glowing example of that genocide in practice: undocumented deaths of children," the national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, Perry Bellegarde, told CTV.
“Our hearts are broken by [the] news from the Secwépemc Nation about the discovery of a mass grave,” they wrote.
SBS Why does it seem that catholic 'protectors' can't be trusted to look after children, they hurt, abuse, and kill them instead. Something is seriously wrong with the church. The church must make a financial reparation to the families of the children killed.
