KAMLOOPS, British Colombia A mass grave containing the remains of 215 children, some as young as 3 years old, has been found on the site of what was once Canada s largest Indigenous residential school.
The school is one of the institutions that held Indigenous children taken from families across the nation.
Chief Rosanne Casimir of the Tk emlups te Secwépemc First Nation said in a news release that the remains were confirmed last weekend with the help of ground-penetrating radar.
More bodies may be found because there are more areas to search on the school grounds, Casimir said Friday.
