The lead investigator in the search for unmarked graves at a former residential institution near the Williams Lake First Nation in central British Columbia says the latest phase of their work has uncovered 66 additional “reflections,” indicating children's graves.

Last Updated Wednesday, January 25, 2023 6:13PM ESTresidential

Whitney Spearing told a news conference that the results of Phase 2 of their investigation show there were crimes committed against children associated with the Catholic operation of St. Joseph's Mission. Spearing says they found “a minimum” of 28 children died at the mission, which operated between 1886 and 1981, many of them buried in unmarked graves around the site.

Please show one Skelton... So far.. No actually Skelton / remains have been found Just blips on a radar screen

Define ' potential '?

It’s disgusting that so-called priests who committed these heinous crimes against children were the same people conducting church services including ‘baptizing & blessing’ children. Those who call themselves ‘royals’ too head some of the churches that were involved in the act.

This is such outblown speculation! Found reflections, but so far, didn’t exhume even a single skeleton remain! ‘…initial phase of its investigation had uncovered 93 “reflections”’ …have identified 159 ***POSSIBLE*** unmarked graves.

Just a reflection of the evil behind the hidden Canadian identity. Come closer, live among them, you will see.

How much whisky does it take to stop lndians from whining ?

More smoke screens Look over here not there Blah blah blaaaah !!!

This was all documented in the T&R report in 2015. Why is the same info resurfacing as...'new?'

Don’t care .

'Potential'...come back when you confirm that they are graves and the reason they died. People are sick of the hype.
