Historical human remains detection dogs and their handlers from Ottawa have searched the grounds of former residential schools in Quebec, as communities look for answers.
"I can't say it was the best years of my life," said Pachano. "You had to take care of yourself. There was no love."
George E. Pachano's wife, Marie Louise Chakapash Pachano, in orange, gave instructions to the handlers when they searched the community in July.Adrian Burke, an archaeologist and a professor of archaeology at Université de Montréal, says dogs are a great tool because they are non-invasive. "It covers more area in less time. So for projects where you might have to cover literally a couple of acres, that's very hard to do with GPR . [It] would take weeks, whereas with the dogs you can do it in a couple of days. So that's a huge advantage.""We're trying to go in extremely sensitive," says Kim Cooper, the team manager for Ottawa Valley Search and Rescue Dog Association and one of the handlers who joined the team in Chisasibi.
