Last year, an explosive report claimed that the remains of 215 children had been discovered at a Canadian residential school.
The remains were reportedly discovered by anthropologist Sarah Beaulieu, who used ground-penetrating radar to discover the remains allegedly buried on the grounds some time between 1890 and 1978, while the Kamloops Indian Residential School operated. The discovery was reported by Chief Rosanne Casimir of the Tk’emlups te Secwépemc First Nation, who said in a statement in May 2021 that “[g]iven the size of the school, with up to 500 students registered and attending at any one time, we understand that this confirmed loss affects First Nations communities across British Columbia and beyond.”
As The Daily Wire reported at the time, no remains had actually been excavated.
The discovery shocked the world and led to widespread condemnation, including from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who released a statement saying the “remains were found at the former Kamloops residential school breaks my heart – it is a painful reminder of that dark and shameful chapter of our country’s history.”
