CRANBROOK: A Canadian Indigenous group said on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila) a search using ground-penetrating radar has found 182 human remains in unmarked graves at a site near a former Catholic Church-run residential school that housed indigenous children taken from their families.

The latest discovery of graves near Cranbrook, British Columbia follows reports of similar findings at two other such Church-run schools, one of more than 600 unmarked graves and another of 215 bodies. Cranbrook is 843 kilometers east of Vancouver.
