The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) will be holding a press conference on Tuesday morning to discuss the ground-penetrating radar (GPR) findings at Keeseekoose First Nation’s former residential school.
Indigenous leaders will be in attendance for the reveal on Feb. 15, 2022.
FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron will accompany Keeseekoose First Nation Chief Lee Kitchemonia along with Federal Crown and Indigenous Relations Minister Marc Miller.
FSIN stated that due to the sensitive nature of this press conference, support staff will be available on site and virtually for anyone needing assistance.
The announcement will be made at the Keeseekoose School Gymnasium starting at 11:00 a.m.
Stay tuned to Global News for full coverage on Tuesday.
The Indian Residential Schools Crisis Line (1-866-925-4419) is available 24 hours a day for anyone experiencing pain or distress as a result of their residential school experience.
Correction: A previous version of this story stated Gov. Gen. Mary Simon would be in attendance at the press conference. Her office has informed Global News that the Governor General will not be participating in the press conference.
