A survivor of the Kamloops Indian Residential School is calling on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to show more leadership on reconciliation and pledge additional funding for her community, ahead of a meeting on Monday. In an interview on Rosemary Barton Live on Sunday, Diena Jules, a Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc elder, said it was "quite disappointing and disheartening" that Trudeau had not met with the First Nation earlier. But she added she was "really glad that he's coming to pay honour and respect to our loved ones that are buried there." Trudeau travelled to Kamloops, B.C., on Sunday and will meet with the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc Nation on Monday, holding a news conference with Kukpi7 (chief) Rosanne Casimir and an event with the community to hear from and honour residential school survivors. Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc Nation is located near the site of the former residential school in Kamloops, where about 200 possible unmarked burial sites were detected by a radar survey this past spring. Jules, who will be at Monday's event, said she hoped that Trudeau would "walk the talk" when it came to reconciliation with Indigenous people. "If you want other people within Canada to really understand and appreciate and have compassion for what us residential school survivors have gone through, then you really need to be the role model," she said.

Trudeau apologized for not following up earlier on two written invitations by the First Nation to attend an event there on Sept. 30, Canada's first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. He also recently expressed regret for instead flying to Tofino, B.C., for a family vacation that day. The prime minister attended a memorial event in Ottawa the night before the new holiday and spoke with several residential school survivors on the phone Sept. 30. Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc Nation leadership said they are "not interested" in further apologies and instead demanded real action. They released a statement stressing that Trudeau's visit should focus "on the real issues of reconciliation" and be more than just a media event. Read more on this story here.

Canadians will still need to take a molecular test, like the expensive PCR test, in order to return to Canada from the United States after the land border reopens to fully vaccinated travellers in November. Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said Sunday that acquiring a negative test has "proven to be one of the more effective requirements" for travellers and that maintaining the requirement was a recommendation of the Public Health Agency of Canada. The molecular testing requirement has become a significant point of concern since the U.S. announced it would be reopening its land border to fully vaccinated travellers on Nov. 8. Currently, Canadians can fly to the U.S. as long as they have a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of departure — including a much cheaper and more easily accessed antigen test. But to return to Canada, Canadians are required to provide a negative molecular test within 72 hours of departure. Some PCR tests, which are commonly used by travellers, can cost more than $139 US. Other types of molecular tests, like a NAAT test, are also accepted. Read more from Blair's interview here.
