The Children of Shingwauk Alumni Association has released a cumulative report on the first phases of its search for unmarked graves on Algoma University’s campus, which is the former site of the Shingwauk Indian Residential School. No burial sites were found during a search of the grounds in front of AlgomaU. “It was a long process to do, but we feel that we’re very, very fortunate that we didn’t find any unknown burial sites as of now,” said Children of Shingwauk Alumni Association President George Diamond. The area behind the university will be searched in two phases later this year.
