Jennifer Moore Rattray's great grandparents attended Brandon Residential School in Manitoba, only to see their own children taken from them and sent to the same school. Those children and two cousins died while attending the school, which was run by the Methodist Church. But Rattray and her family still don't know exactly where the children are buried. Some are thought to lie in an unmarked cemetery on the site of the former school... land that was sold by the city of Brandon to make way for an RV park 20 years ago. Rattray, a member Peepeekisis First Nation and former Executive Director of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, reflects on the lost children in her own family and in so many others, as she considers the future of reconciliation after this week's Indigenous delegation to the Vatican.
