The dogs indicated six areas of interest, and the next step is to confirm that with Ground Penetrating Radar.
“I didn’t think that work would be so emotional, when the dogs barked that meant they found something,” said OCN Councilor Edwin Jebb.
“The emotions came up from my stomach to my throat and my knees buckled. I was overtaken with emotion from the dogs that were working,”
The residential school was in operation from 1914 to 1933.
