  TORONTO There are growing calls for the federal government to declare a national day of mourning in honour of the 215 children whose remains were found on the site of a former residential school in Kamloops, B.C. As of Monday morning, more than 28,000 people have signed a petition on Change.org calling for the federal government to do exactly that. Survivors of residential schools and their families carry the burden of this tragedy and it is due time that Canada as a whole also share this burden. These deaths impact every person in this land and so it’s important that we all come together to mourn, the petition says.
