Searching for lost Indigenous remains: How the Star helped solve a 150 year old mystery

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Four Indigenous skulls were gifted from one famous doctor to another almost 150 years ago. Could they still exist? From a letter found written by Dr. William Osler, two current day doctors picked up the thread and undertook an investigation that lasted over two years, crossed continents and brought a man to come out of retirement to pick up the case. David Bruser, investigations editor at The Star, joins "This Matters" to discuss the fascinating story.
