As early as 1897, Schools Branch employee Martin Benson expressed reservations about having the schools inspected by Indian agents, who, he believed, were “opposed to make an adverse report on a school if there is any way of avoiding it, it being more than likely that such action would bring them into collision with the Missionaries and interfere with their authority among the Indians.” The department’s inspectors, he believed, devoted too much attention to “inventories, statements, returns, accounts, &c, and pass lightly over such high matters as the general progress, management and results obtained.” There was, he said, no one “in the Department who has ever seen more than a few of our principal schools or knows how they are carrying on the work best suited to the wants of the Indians.” TRC, NRA, Library and Archives Canada, RG10, volume 6039, file 160-1, part 1, Martin Benson, Memorandum, 15 July 1897.

38.On-site evaluation of residential school cemeteries might involve a range of activities that vary widely in cost and required expertise. At a most basic level, it can involve mapping the cemetery and the distribution of visible graves within it. Such graves might be identified by wood, stone, or metal markers or monuments, by picket fences encircling the graves, or perhaps only by depressions that might represent unmarked graves.
Cemetery inspection and mapping can be complicated by previous disturbance and destruction of surface evidence, while overlying vegetation can obscure the grave markers and depressions. The full spatial extent of abandoned and overgrown cemeteries also may not be known, with unmarked graves remaining undetected within and beyond the accepted cemetery limits. Natural undulations in the ground surface can be mistaken for collapsed graves, making it difficult to unequivocally determine the boundaries of the cemetery. Effectively mapping and documenting long-abandoned cemeteries may require implementation of a range of investigation methods that require specialized skills.
In the case of well-maintained cemeteries, relatively straightforward documentation might involve little more than consumer-grade Global Positioning Systems (GPS), cameras, a compass and fifty-metre tapes. This might be sufficient to establish a control grid and map of the distribution of graves in the cemetery. In the case of abandoned cemeteries, where individual graves are no longer marked, are spread out, or are overgrown with vegetation, site verification is more challenging. Mapping might also include aerial photography, using conventional cameras or those capable of recording beyond the visible-light spectrum (such as infrared and ultraviolet). This imagery can document the differential vegetation growth patterns that characterize graves and other ground disturbances. If appropriately referenced and coupled with ground inspection, these images might offer sufficient map resolution to confirm the observed patterns. This high-resolution image collection might include satellite imagery, or that collected with conventional aircraft or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or “drones”). Choosing the appropriate methodology involves considering the required scale of resolution (based on the minimum size of feature to be detected), the nature of vegetation cover, the degree of ground disturbance, and the available budget. Another airborne remote sensing method that might become more cost-effective in the future is Lidar surveying (the name comes from a combination of “light” and “radar”). This involves high-resolution relief mapping using laser beams that can penetrate vegetation canopies to map the ground surface. It can permit non-invasive, high-resolution mapping of surface features such as collapsed graves that might not be readily detected through ground inspection.
Cemetery mapping can also involve ground-penetrating radar (GPR), electrical resistivity or conductivity, and magnetic gradiometer surveys (known as “near-surface geophysical techniques”). Each of these approaches involves systematic evaluation of the survey area, using a control grid. Each type of instrument measures some characteristic of the ground at locations defined by a coordinate system. Changes in these characteristics might reflect normal and natural variation in the sediment, or, alternatively, human modification of the sediment. Under the right conditions, these techniques can detect unmarked graves. However, these methods often require supplemental evaluation. The survey methodology must be designed after considering the size/scale of the features being sought, and also the site circumstances. The results obtained by these methods must be subjected to post-survey testing (“ground truthing”).
Ground-penetrating radar survey involves transmitting a radar beam into the earth, and measuring the time interval before those beams are reflected back to the instrument. The greater the time interval before the radar beam returns, the greater the depth of the detected unconformity. These returns might reflect natural changes in sedimentary texture, or, alternatively, culturally derived unconformities, obstructions, or voids. Under ideal conditions, plotting the spatial pattern of these unconformities permits detection and interpretation of buried features.
Earth placed into a grave will be distinct from the surrounding undisturbed sediment. As a result, it may vary in its ability to conduct electric current from the surrounding ground. This variation can be detected by electrical conductivity and resistivity surveys that measure the flow of electricity through the earth. The analyst seeks to map patterned variations in the amount of electricity flowing through the ground.
Graves may contain sediment with magnetic characteristics that differ from the surrounding natural sediment. These differences may be detected through magnetic gradiometer surveys that measure localized differences in the earth’s magnetic field.
All these techniques require specialized expertise to design the survey, operate the equipment, and differentiate between natural versus human-induced patterns. Experience with geophysical prospection at the scale required to detect graves might not be found in geological exploration or engineering firms. Instead, archaeologists with the appropriate experience might be required, particularly to do the ground truthing necessary to interpret the detected anomalies.
The findings of a near-surface geophysical survey are seldom obvious or self-evident. The detected unconformities can derive from diverse sources, and can be affected by subsequent disturbance, variable sediment texture and moisture regimes, surface or subsurface bedrock or glacial till deposits, surface trash (specifically, metallic objects), and magnetic interference from fences, hydroelectric lines, buried electrical lines, or water supply trenches. Survey results can also be affected by instrument or operator error, daily variations in the earth’s magnetic field, or other factors. Effective archaeological interpretation of data acquired through these processes depends upon post-survey inspection of the ground surface, supplemental investigation with a metal detector or soil probe, or test excavation. Given the special circumstances of cemetery investigations, subsurface ground truthing is often not possible. This might require a precautionary approach whereby protective buffers are established to encompass possible graves. One alternative approach, which was employed at the Red Deer cemetery, involved the removal of the top few centimetres of topsoil in a block excavation to the point that rectangular grave shafts became evident in contrast to the undisturbed subsoil surrounding them. Once the location, arrangement, and size of these graves were documented, excavation was discontinued and the block was refilled and restored. Such shallow sub-surface testing might be employed, particularly in an effort to evaluate isolated or irregular surface features that might be either graves or natural surface undulations.

44.Indian Residential Schools of the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement 2011, IRS School Chart – INAC 2011, document provided to the TRC by Aboriginal and Northern Affairs Canada, 29 September 2011. In 1987, Indian Affairs informed the Blue Quills administration that it would not provide funding for the high school program after June 1988. The decision was driven, at least in part, by the desire of other local First Nations to develop their own high school programs. Indian Affairs continued to fund post-secondary programs at Blue Quills. The high school program and associated residence closed in June 1988. That year, seventysix Grade Twelve students graduated from the school: the largest graduating class in the high school’s twelve-year history.
