Federal Justice Minister David Lametti says he is open to the recommendations in a new report that proposes civil and criminal sanctions against Canadians who engage in residential-school denialism.
Lametti was responding to an interim report by his appointee, Kimberly Murray, a member of the Kahnesatake Mohawk Nation in Quebec, who was tasked in June 2022 to identify measures including legal ones to address what the government said were unmarked graves and burial sites of children at former Indian residential schools.
