Rotary Club of Sackville and Area extends our deepest sympathies to the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation on the discovery of the mass grave on the site of a former residential school in Kamloops British Columbia. We encourage our members and supporters to educated themselves on the history of Residential Schools in Canada by visiting the following sites and taking some time of mourning to Honour these 215 children, and all Indigenous children who never made it home.
This discovery is quite painful for many who have been touched by this great injustice and the intergenerational trauma that has resulted from it. See the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) document for the 94 Calls-to-Action to understand how you can help support reconciliation and healing.
