Remains from hundreds of children have been found at a long-since closed Canadian residential school, an indigenous group said Thursday. The school was one of many places where the Canadian government took indigenous children who had been removed from their families for forced assimilation.
The remains were detected near the site of the Kamloops Indian Residential School, which opened in 1890, reports the Toronto Star. Although no remains have been excavated, a ground-penetrating radar specialist helped confirm the remains of 215 children by the school.
