The discovery, the largest one to date, came weeks after the remains of 215 children were found on the grounds of another former boarding school in British Columbia.
Both schools were part of a system that took Indigenous children in the country from their families over a period of about 113 years, and housed them in boarding schools, where they were prohibited from speaking their languages and sexually, physically and emotionally abused.
Do something positive.
