‘Continued genocide’: First Nations leaders disturbed by effort to dig up unmarked graves in B.C.

News of the undated incident was made public Friday in an interim report from Canada’s independent special interlocutor for missing children and unmarked burial sites associated with residential schools — a harrowing system of assimilation sponsored by the federal government and multiple Christian churches for more than a century.

Continued genocide???
