A number of Indigenous organizations are calling for a national inquiry into the ‘60s Scoop.
They want a federal commission to take a closer look into the scoop which saw thousands of children taken from their families and placed into non-Indigenous homes.
It’s believed an estimated 20,000 First Nations kids were impacted from the mid-1950s into the 1980s.
However, Indigenous leaders say they still don’t know exactly how many children were taken or died in foster homes.
