Quoting a CBC story on Monday July 12,
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/penelakut-kuper-residential-school-1.6100201
The Penelakut Tribe in B.C.'s Southern Gulf Islands says it has found more than 160 "undocumented and unmarked" graves in the area, which was
 also once home to the Kuper Island Residential School.


Penelakut Chief Joan Brown "invited community members to participate in the March for the Children in Chemainus, B.C., on Aug. 2 to remember the students who were forced to attend the Kuper Island Residential School and to move forward on the path to healing and reconciliation."

Until then, let's all take some time to contemplate how we can work to improve relations between Thetis and our First Nations neighbours.
