More than one week after the graves of 215 children were discovered in Kamloops, what happens next with residential schools and reconciliation? Peter Van Dusen welcomes Christa Big Canoe, legal director for Aboriginal Legal Services and former lead counsel for the MMIWG national inquiry. We also hear from MPs Gary Anandasangaree (Liberal), Jamie Schmale (Conservative), and Charlie Angus (NDP).
