171 'plausible burials' found at Ontario residential school site in sad first for the province

Wauzhushk Onigum Nation announced the heartbreaking news on Tuesday after an eight-month-long search conducted by the The Kaatagoging Survivors Nation's technical, archaeological and GPR team, informed by Survivor testimony, with financial support from both Canada and Ontario.

Of the 171 plausible burials found on the site associated with the former St. Mary's Indian Residential School, only five grave markers were located.issued by Wauzhushk Onigum."The site has been secured consistent with the Nation's Anishinaabe protocols.", at least 36 students died while attending St. Mary's, which prior to 1938 went by several names including St. Anthony's Roman Catholic School, the Kenora Boarding School and The Rat Portage Boarding School.

The institution closed for good in 1972, but Wauzhushk Onigum Chief Chris Skead told CBC on Tuesday that the"The Nation's next steps are to gain greater certainty on the number of plausible graves in the cemetery grounds using additional technologies and to conduct additional investigations at several additional sites not covered during the initial investigations that are in vicinity of the school," reads the statement issued on Tuesday.

"These additional sites have been identified through Survivor testimony, archaeological assessment, and archival investigations that show burial rituals being conducted by former Residential School staff. Some of the sites to be investigated are on private lands and the Nation is continuing to pursue access to these."

Wauzhushk Onigum is asking for privacy at this time and says additional findings will be released as they emerge.
