First Nations leaders in British Columbia are “very disappointed” by a recent report that residential school deniers tried to dig up suspected unmarked grave sites at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School.

[…]“Denialists entered the site without permission. Some came in the middle of the night, carrying shovels; they said they wanted to ‘see for themselves’ if children are buried there,” reads the report by Kimberly Murray.

“A core group of Canadians continue to defend the Indian Residential Schools System.”

    If there is a conspiracy that made up those dead children, there is nothing preventing the conspirators from just burying face skeletons. The denialist were 100% going to steal those skeletons.

    And even then there is no way of proving anything because the conspirators could just have taken bodies from another cemetery and placed them there. There was literally no point to this and it’s just far right nutjob harassing people.
