A press conference set for this Friday to unveil the results of an investigation in to a Williams Lake Residential School has been postponed.
Initially, the Williams Lake First Nation had planned to reveal the results of the investigation at the site of the former St Joseph’s Mission Residential School this week.
But, after hearing input from their communities, they have decided to wait until the new year.
According to the Nation, since announcing the reveal date, they have heard from a number of communities that they do not have the necessary health and wellness supports in place to deal with any possible impacts.
In addition, a number of communities are still facing the impacts of the recent extreme weather events across the province.
In light of these issues, the Nation has decided to delay the reveal until the new year.
