Remembering children who died at residential schools | CBC News -

The names of 2,800 children who died — and the schools they attended — were listed on a ceremonial 50-metre-long cloth to commemorate their lives.
However, organizers said the names listed do not represent the total number of children who passed away at these schools.
It is estimated that about 150,000 Indigenous children were removed from their homes and forced to attend residential schools in Canada. The first schools opened in the 1880s and the last residential school closed in 1996.
