Communities plan to search for more Indigenous children's remains in Canada

Flowers, shoes and moccasins sit on the steps of the main entrance of the former Mohawk Institute, which was a residential school for Indigenous kids, in Brantford, Ontario. The memorial is to honor the children whose remains were discovered in unmarked graves in recent months in Canada.

Thousands of Indigenous children in Canada died in the custody of boarding schools meant to assimilate them. Communities are searching for their remains.
