LONDON, ONT. — A healing walk is planned for July 1 in Victoria Park in London, Ont. to honour the victims of Canada’s residential school system.

At a press conference Thursday Chief Cadmus Delorme of the Cowessess First Nation stressed that the findings were not from a mass grave but rather unmarked graves where headstones had been removed.
