My grandfather is in an unmarked grave, it was marked when he was buried, and most importantly the family knows which plot he is in; however a decision was made not to replace the marker when the first one was lost in a wind storm. The point is when the term "unmarked grave" is used a lot of people will think of mass graves or assume that an unknown person was just buried. Every single "unmarked" grave may well have been marked and recorded. Religious ceremonies, almost certainly Catholic, may well have occurred at the time of burial as well. Horrible what happened, and I fully support tracking down those that participated in wrong doing. They should be charged with whatever law works. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article states that these are unmarked and undocumented graves of children. I'm not sure why any distinction needs to be made? Your comment reminded me of many of the other comments I've been reading around the web downplaying the significance of these findings. It serves no purpose other than to muddy the waters on this matter. To be honest I thought it was a little odd coming from you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undocumented graves is new to me. There is definitely a distinction that should be made between unmarked, and undocumented. Ultimately I think we should be a whole lot more concerned with all the apparent needless death, than what happened after these poor people died.

Grave markers rot if made of wood over time. Litterally the first line of the link says they were unmarked and undocumented. I'm not sure why you keep harping on this idea, peticularly when the link states that they were undocumented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the parents even informed their children died? From what I can gather reading this article and a few others coming out today, not in the unmarked and undocumented graves. 121 deaths were reported and documented from this school. Many of the deaths were from drowning due to the schools location on a island and children trying to get away. From what I can gather the 160 unmarked were not documented and over doubled the original death toll of this peticular "school". These numbers are seeming to be pretty consistent in all the schools. The undocumented deaths are slightly higher then the documented, meaning whatever the original death toll of these schools were, we can double it and then some.

But why weren’t the children’s parents (in all cases) informed of their child’s death? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why where children forcibly removed from their homes and sent to these schools in the first place? Why did children get stolen from family's and forced into foster care during the sixties scoop. Why do dozens and dozens of indigenous communities still need to boil their water to drink it safely. We will never have a logical answer to simple questions regarding these horrifying acts, because there isn't one.

Every single "unmarked" grave may well have been marked and recorded. Religious ceremonies, almost certainly Catholic, may well have occurred at the time of burial as well. The media always uses language as a tool, and while the CBC has been forthcoming about the reality of the graves, free media is used against democracies for profit and geopolitical reasons. Skewed articles, misleading language and outright lies, putting it in an ignorant person's head that there's mass graves full of children being dug up. You ask a Russian or Chinese person this they will 100% think Canada is uncovering holocaust style mass graves, ask an American maybe 75% will say it, hell a lot of Canadians think this is the cast. It's an unfortunate reality from the internet increasing a persons capability for absorbing information, if you can overload someone with enough false information, they will take it as fact.
