Missanabie Cree First Nation, through its company ISN Maskwa, is partnering with Narratives Inc. to provide services related to searching unmarked graves and burials
The First Nation says the partnership is a step toward helping communities find the truth of what occurred in residential schools.
ISN Maskwa is an offshoot of the private security and investigative services firm Investigative Solutions Network. The team has experience investigating homicides, sexual assaults and other violent offences in Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities, said Nolan. Chief Jason Gauthier said in a statement that he hopes the partnership encourages other Indigenous-led initiatives to promote healing and work to find answers for communities.The organization said getting access to records and funding are the biggest challenges.
The first step in investigations is to establish protocols for searches, ceremonies and rituals, said Sadiq. Then communities must decide what records need to be looked at.
