my name is Thomas Bear and i am a residential school survivor and with these graves being found and also the previous ones breaks my heart…it brought back a lot of bad memories that I had bin through…..it truly breaks my heart… being a father and having to explain this to my children is difficult because i cant explain it with out breaking down
Thank you for your words Elder Florence Sparvier.❤️
Soul shattering news 🙁
The Catholic Church removed the grave markers? No wonder people are waking up and leaving the church
Punish those who took down the head stones then. Why are you trying to make the whole country guilty of this.
I can’t believe this went on for so long…so sad…
Standing with you there are no words to express what I feel …but you are right truth is needed
now don’t be voting for the politician crying the loudest for this injustice or your gonna get played……..
Wow you found graves in a graveyard. How unusual
The Chief’s calm and quiet opening presentation adds gravitas and sadness to this story. God help us.
How come these graves exposing now & not before ?? Any spl reasons ?
Hey! what now? what are today’s Canadians gonna do to ‘honor’ those lives?
In Hk, Li Kcow Shing ,Richest man , hate the NT country side village people , ( original citizen ) . He interfere the government , not allow to build village house
Man…this school was operating to… 1997. Not 1897: 1_9_9_7
In Canada, we own our mistakes. This is who we are!
I am so sorry for our ignorance. We will stand by you.
I am sorry, I can not bear to watch the burial site.😭😠
I am so sad. How could our parents and grandparents have allowed these schools to exist? How could our governments not check or supervise what was going on there? How can the Catholic Church continue to have any moral authority in the world if they do not do everything in their power to help parents, friends, families find the truth? We should be ashamed of ourselves and we should do the right thing – whatever that is – right now.
why isn’t the government unearthing these? they have no respect, no decency. they act like those prison wardens who put their inmates to manual labor.
Again truly heartbreaking to hear of these disturbing events. I hope the families all get justice!!!. But even that will never ever take away their deep heart felt pain. R.I.P 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
We all knew it was suspect since the 70’s and 80’s. Unfortunately it’s a reality now.
We are with you. Stay strong! Let us make a change
This is a disgrace for Canada. It should never have happened. I feel so ashamed of our country. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
That’s very, very shameful of Canada. I love Canada but I really really gotta blame Canada this time. That’s such a disgrace to the country and to humanity!!!!
ye the north. welcome to canada. so not how god keeps them lands glorious and free?
Elimination of catholic schools in Canada please
Shame. So much shame. 1996?
The big catastrophe in my ancestry was the Irish potato famine. A million people died.
How did the school stay open till 1997.There must have been some indications that things where wrong. Why did it take so long?
But but christianity is love!!. Love for only one kind…… 🙁 that is what crusaders did to middle east…1000x worse. Never forget.
The church has to close in Canada
The Catholic Church is a disgrace.
Exposed to measles, small pox, TB, polio …they didn’t have a chance. So very sad. The catholic church needs to step up and do some forensics? Pay for every head stone and ceremony.
I believe in God, but I don’t believe in the bible! I never have! I wonder why?
Shouldn’t there be an investigation before we all jump to the conclusion that these are another 751 children that were covered up? I mean there are old over grown cemeteries all over Canada which are now “umarked” graves.
Cancel the Catholic Church’s tax exempt status. While we’re at it, cancel ALL tax exemption for religious organisations.
The Pandemic has revealed the darkness of cruelty and violence in the past, and the failure to address injustice and inequality in the present, there should be no Canada Day celebrations on July 1, 2021.
The burning of the Churches can not be much of a surprise to anyone. The Catholic Church must be told to leave Canada after all charges have been addressed.
This is heart breaking. Hopefully justice will be served. Shame on Canada and the Catholic Church.
I think we should have a National Day of Fasting and Repentance for these atrocities. This did not go unseen by Almighty God and he will bring recompense.
It’s only a grave yard. They only removed the stones to save money and space.
What were they supposed to do with the bodies of children who died at those schools? What is the claim here, exactly? We have known about all this for as long as I can remember. What truth? Who was denying this?
It’s never good to hear only one side of a story.
The United Nations working hard to divide.
give each politician a shovel, drive them to such a site, provide refreshments, and have them spend a full day of work digging. then turn parliament hill into a holocaust museum.
