Nous sommes profondément troublés par la découverte de 215 enfants autochtones enterrés à l’ancien Pensionnat de Kamloops. Ceci perpétue le traumatisme. La ligne téléphonique d’aide aux anciens résidents des pensionnats autochtones 1-866-925-4419 est là pour offrir du soutien.Nos pensées vont aux communautés et aux familles qui ont été touchées par cette tragédie.
