A Muskowekwan First Nation Band Councillor is calling for both the federal and provincial governments to search the grounds of all residential schools across Canada to find the missing children.
Cynthia Desjarlais spoke at a tribute today (Tues) at a residential School northwest of Melville, honouring the 215 children whose remains were found at a former Kamloops residential school and to the 35 found at the former Muscowequan Residential School in Saskatchewan.
Desjarlais says the outcome from the abuses in the schools is reflected in the justice system, the incarceration rates, in hospitals and with intergenerational trauma.
