No co-operation, no comment: Missionary Oblates who ran Kamloops school won’t release recordsThe federal government and churches have fought for more than 20 years over making records available to groups trying to identify residential school victims Religions always do the right and “godly thing”…. They are not the property of the school, they are the property of the government/ tax payers who paid for the school. By doing this their guilt is signed and sealed😠😡 More than likely the destroying the records as we speak. Before a court orders them to hand them over. And if all these children died of illness, what are they hiding what are they so afraid of🤔

Indigenous groups grapple with next steps after 215 unmarked graves foundFirst Nations communities and Indigenous groups across Canada are now grappling with what to do next after locating the remains of 215 children who were buried in unmarked graves near a residential school in British Columbia. Last day of this news cycle The indigenous first nation people are real owners of these lands we call our home. Could the horribl event be called genocide of first nations? What steps were taken by the RCMP when so many children went missing? I can’t imagine the disappearances would not have raised serious suspicions. Apologies be damned. It’s time for the truth. Time for the children to be home. Time for justice. Sorry doesn’t cut it.
