Thank you Michelle for a very comprehensive, articulate and informative article. I enjoyed reading it very much. Kimberly Murray's outrageous, inaccurate and inflammatory comments clearly indicate she has crossed the Rubicon of reason and legitimacy and shows no signs of stopping. But of course, why should she. There is absolutely no one in government with the cahones to rein her in and she knows it. Why should she listen to the voice of reason when the voices of all those lost children are screaming out for her attention. Only in Canada, you say, pity.

Take 100 families in an era when the average family had ten children, with maybe 7 surviving to adulthood. That would mean 300 babies, infants, and children dying every generation. Over three generations you would have a significant number of child deaths. Canadian First Nations didn’t mark graves. People died, and they were buried. No markers. If a priest marked a grave it would have been with a wooden cross. Which might last ten years. So, yes there will be 1000s of ‘unmarked’ graves. It wasn’t the custom.
