B.C. residential school monument ‘asking for these children’s spirits to come home’
in remembrance of all the Indigenous children who were abused, murdered, and died while attending residential schools has taken shape and is nearly ready to be painted.
“We’re working on a communication strategy to get the word out to tell the story, and we’re planning the logistics of the tour and visiting key areas for the monument to stop for families that have been affected by residential schools.” “ moved about the 18th of June so it will be in Victoria June 21 for National Aboriginal Day, and then we want to be in our destination on Sept. 30 for Truth and Reconciliation Day, where it will be unloaded and then placed where it should be.”
Hunt said he is hopeful that all of the children’s remains are not just found, but that they’re all able to be named as well.
