Former residential school set to be demolished in northern B.C.

A former residential school building in northern B.C. is set to be demolished and replaced with a cultural centre. The building operated as a residential school from 1951 to 1975 in the Kaska Dena community of Lower Post. Until last year it acted as a post office and office space, but is a source of trauma for many survivors and their families.
