In response to the findings, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said $27-million earmarked in the 2019 federal budget will be “deployed immediately” to communities to “find and honour children who died at these institutions.” The Quebec government recently announced a “consultation circle” with provincial and federal governments to determine next steps in the search for the remains of residential school children.
The announcement also includes access to culturally-appropriate trauma and mental health supports for survivors and their families.The province says it will identify technical experts to lead related research, analysis and technical field work, and Indigenous communities will have the option to work with specialists such as the Centre of Forensic Sciences and the Office of the Chief Coroner. The work would also include death investigations and forensic examinations of children’s remains.
The commission estimated that at least 426 children who attended residential schools in Ontario are known to have died, while an unknown number are missing. Research also identified 12 unmarked burial sites in Ontario but the government estimates there are likely more.
Great, let's do it! Now could this be the end of the gravy train? We keep on paying for the same things over and over! Can I go back to the guy and ask him for 200k more since the price of housing has increased?
