751 unmarked graves believed to include the burial sites of Native children from a Catholic residential school have been found in Canada, in Saskatchewan province. The graves were found in a cemetery at the former Marieval Indian Residential School in Saskatchewan province, which borders the US to the south. The Catholic institution operated for almost a century from 1899 to 1997, as part of a Canadian school system created to europeanise native children by forcibly taking the children from their parents and destroying their culture. This seems to be the white man's way. Last month, the remains of 215 children, some as young as three years of age, were discovered at a similar burial site near former school grounds in the province of British Columbia. Pope Francis said the findings pained but he would not apologise. Looks like the white-led Church only apologises for white victims. The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous First Nations (FSIN) said that ground-penetrating radar had been used to locate unmarked graves. At a news conference on Thursday, Cowessess Chief Cadmus Delorme said research teams had registered 751 “recorded hits” in their scans of the site, but that each grave could contain more than one set of remains, and further technical examinations would be carried out. There are oral stories that there are adults in this gravesite, as well,” Earlier, local political leaders called on the Catholic Church to release its records relating to the schools and its students. “We need to work alongside the communities that continue to search the residential school sites and make sure we find all of these unmarked graves,” politician Ryan Meili said in a CBC interview. The indigenous school system was funded by the Canadian government and run by the Catholic Church, and operated until the late 1990s. There were nearly 140 such institutions around the country, with an enrolment of some 150,000 Native children who had been forcibly taken from their families to be taught a new language, culture, and religion.
