A Cree leader in Manitoba says that while there may be a ‘perceived conflict of interest,’ the commission’s work will be independent
The head of an international organization Ottawa hired to give advice on identifying possible remains in unmarked graves at former residential schools says to give its coming work a chance.
Kathryne Bomberger, the director-general of the organization, says it is just starting out and plans to adjust the timeline laid out in a technical agreement, which was recently made public. North also says while there may be a “perceived conflict of interest” stemming from the federal government’s role in the arrangement and it having funded the church-run residential school system, she says the commission’s work will be independent.
