Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew has revealed more details about how the government plans to conduct a search of a Winnipeg landfill for the remains of two missing Indigenous women.
Speaking at a news conference on Wednesday, Kinew confirmed that workers have started excavating a section of Brady Road landfill where they plan to search for the remains of Ashley Shingoose.
“We just want to kind of go back to basic principles and make sure that we’re choosing the right approach that’s going to give the maximum chance of success while also being delivered in a fiscally responsible approach,” Kinew said.
“And so I can tell you that in addition to the excavation tests being underway this week, we’ve also done ground-penetrating radar testing, and then we’re going to be using a few other sampling approaches to try and see whether they might bring anything else to the table.”
Shingoose, along with Rebecca Contois, Marcedes Myran and Morgan Harris, were confirmed as victims of convicted serial killer Jeremy Skibicki in 2022.
