The national chief of the Assembly of First Nations says the International Criminal Court should investigate the disappearance of Indigenous children from Canadian residential schools.
Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak said she supports the call by Kimberly Murray — the federally-appointed Independent Special Interlocutor on Missing Children and Unmarked Graves and burial sites — for the ICC to reconsider its decision not to investigate.
“A lot of the people that did create these harms were never prosecuted,” Woodhouse Nepinak told CBC News. “It’s still hurtful to so many survivors.”
