A Manitoba First Nation is weighing next steps in its search of a former residential school site after no human remains were found during the excavation of a Catholic church basement.

While there was no evidence of human remains found under the church basement, that doesn't mean the process is complete, he said. "I think it's inappropriate for someone to say, 'well, hey, look, they didn't find any burials so school, must have been OK — It wasn't OK," he said. "[It's] part of that ongoing work of really understanding what was going on in that school specifically and with the system as a whole," he said.Carleton, who has written and lectured about residential school denialism, said it's also important to realize that not all anomalies found on residential school sites will end up being human remains.
