Apparently it was in the Truth and Reconciliation Report but was either not read or ignored.

your statement... is vague and lacks specifics/details. In any case, in 2019, the Liberal government allocated ~$34 million toward projects intended to research the children who died at residential schools; a key example being an extension outcome of the TRC - the 'Missing Children Project', with funding towards such things as an online registry of the dead, documenting known cemeteries, etc.. Given the Kamloops discovery, the remaining ($27 million) funds from that initial allocation have since been targeted on an urgent basis to, "support Indigenous led, community based, survivor centric and culturally sensitive investigations of burial sites"... with the federal government, "actively reaching out to Indigenous communities to work with them on how they can access the $27 million of funding being delivered to support them."

The Kamloops search was funded by a provincial grant.

the majority funding was provincial; however, there was also federal monies involved.
