She described the discovery as "an unthinkable loss that was spoken about but never documented" at the Kamloops Indian Residential School, the largest such school in the country.

Residential schools were a reality - a tragedy that existed here, in our country, and we have to own up to it. "215 Indigenous kids were found in an unmarked mass grave," he said.
