First Nation still investigating former residential school site in British Columbia

CHEMAINUS, B.C. A First Nation community on Vancouver Island says it is continuing its investigations after a newsletter circulating online said it had found more than 160 unmarked and undocumented graves at a former residential school site. In a statement, the Penelakut Tribe says the newsletter wasn t an “official” news release but was intended to inform neighbouring First Nations of the work in the community. The statement says the nation has been working since 2014 to investigate a documented list of “missing/murdered children” from the school including using ground-penetrating radar through a program with the University of British Columbia.
