Manitoba RCMP have spent years investigating abuse allegations at residential school

WINNIPEG- A residential school in Manitoba known for harsh discipline and fatal runaway attempts has been the focus of a large-scale, years-long investigation into sexual abuse allegations.
Mounties said Tuesday that officers with the major crime unit began looking into the Fort Alexander Residential School, northeast of Winnipeg, in 2010 and a criminal investigation began the following year.
The school was opened in 1905 in the community of Fort Alexander, which later became the Sagkeeng First Nation. It ran for 66 years until 1970.
Sagkeeng Chief Derrick Henderson said he was a band councillor when the probe started. However, he was only informed of the investigation by RCMP last week, he said.
