Members of #Piapot #FirstNation, students from the #UniversityOfWinnipeg & various other professionals are learning new techniques that will hopefully be used for ground searches of potential #UnmarkedGraves sites in the future.

A new company “Kā-natonahkik-tāpwēwin,” which in the #Cree language translates to “In search of the truth,” is leading the training. The company known as KNT IRS Consulting for short, is an #Indigenous owned, on-reserve company.

(The #Carcross / #Tagish #FirstNation (CTFN) in the #Yukon is #exploring a #JusticeModel that considers #crime without punishment, which it hopes will better serve its citizens.
The First Nation is #developing an #AlternativeCourt - separate from the #traditional #JusticeSystem - that would handle #MinorCrimes by offering supports within the #community )
