Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Gary Anandasangaree says the federal government is on the verge of presenting a plan in response to calls for a search of a Manitoba landfill for the remains of two First Nations women believed to have been murdered by an alleged serial killer.
“This is an issue that we’re in for the long haul,” Anandasangaree told CBC News on Friday.
“We will make a decision very shortly.”
Anandasangaree said Ottawa is willing to support a search but it needs Manitoba to get on board.
“We’re not having a mature conversation with the different levels of government on how to get to the right place,” he said.
“We do need the province of Manitoba to be at the table.”
Has this landfill been under constant close surveillance this whole time? I wonder if it’s possible the perp went there at like 2am and moved the bodies again.
It’s unlikely that there is anything resembling a body to find, let alone move.
By the time anyone realized the victim might be in the landfill, signifigant amounts of decomposition would have already happened.
As of today, about all that’ll be left is some bone fragments and any metal the victim happened to be wearing.
Dumps are really terrible for decomposition actually. And bones and especially teeth take years to decompose, even in ideal conditions.
But to your point, it still seems like finding a needle in a haystack.
Except the landfill, privately-owned Prairie Green, long ago blocked off the area where dumping occured during that time period … so that if and when a search happened it would be narrowed.
Prairie Green is a privately-owned landfill and is completely fenced with a single entry point and limited hours of operation. Nobody can dump whenever they want.
