Mr. Speaker, I want to give my condolences on behalf of Lambton—Kent—Middlesex to the member for Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo and the people there. I was very troubled to hear about these 215 children who were found. It hit close to home for me.
On the weekend, I had an opportunity to visit a memorial at one of the first nations in my community, Kettle and Stony Point first nation. One of my great uncles is indigenous, and three of his siblings went to one of these residential schools. It is very heartbreaking to hear some of the stories of the abuse, how the moms, dads, brothers and sisters missed the children while they were away, and to hear some of the horrific things that happened there. I want to give my sympathies to all of those who had to endure that at these residential schools.
Could the member comment on what the government will do to look into other areas and other schools, where there may potentially be gravesites of children, more innocent lives that were lost? How we can look for similar burial sites at these former residential schools and how it will that affect those communities?
