B.C. Conservative Peter Milobar delivered deeply personal comments on the floor of the legislature this week .

Milobar was responding to what he regards as residential school denialism emerging within his own party caucus.

The Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc Nation was on the receiving end of a weekend posting on social media by a Conservative MLA Dallas Brodie : “The number of confirmed child burials at the former Kamloops Indian Residential (school) site is zero ”.

Milobar will attend the party's annual general meeting in Nanaimo this weekend .

Milobar: "Any time you have a convention, there’s a possibility of a leadership review" There's not one on the agenda, but there could be one of sorts, “depending on, (whether) some of the processes would be constitutional or not”.
