The Manitoba Historical Society, Heritage Winnipeg and the Manitoba Archaeological Society is calling for a complete stoppage and moratorium on any incursion, damage, deforestation, and alteration of the grounds of the LeMay Forest in this heritage area immediately. The Lemay Forest site is protected under the Cemeteries Act due to the knowledge of presence of human remains in the Aisle Ritchot cemetery, and the Heritage Resources Act as this site may have significant archaeological materials present. This site is currently under review for becoming a site of National Historical significance. What we know: - The Aisle Ritchot cemetery, in St. Norbert was the cemetery for the Aisle Ritchot orphanage, and home for unwed mothers and was run by the Sisters of Misericordia from 1904-1948. - Large numbers of children died from variety of causes such as poor nutrition, disease, and overcrowding. (60% mortality rate) - Admissions note from 1200 – 2300 children having died at this orphanage, the majority of those were buried in common graves in the cemetery. - Only 15 bodies (named graves) were documented as having been removed and relocated (Desjardins Funeral Home 1974), children’s remains in unnamed graves likely were not removed. - The Lemay forest is a rare, natural old-growth Riparian forest. - The Lemay Forest is a special significance for animal and bird life and a protected area under the Federal Migratory Birds Protection Act. - Any disturbance /construction could disturb the ecosystem or groundwater. The developers are in violation of Section 35 of the Cemeteries act and Is guilty of an offence and liable under Manitoba Law. Given that this is a cultural and naturally sensitive heritage area, and likely contains mass, unidentified graves containing human remains, it is imperative that this site be protected by our Heritage Laws.

We also understand that before real change can happen, the truth must be revealed, and only then can we make the path clear for reconciliation. Our organization is committed to help educate, support, preserve, and promote Indigenous, First Nations, Métis, and Inuit histories, traditions, languages, and culture through our publications and online resources. We can help to address the systemic racism, discrimination, and marginalization that has been experienced by Indigenous communities in Canada.</p> <p>The Manitoba Historical Society office is located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene peoples, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, we acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past, and we dedicate ourselves to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.</p> </div> </div> <div class="footer-menu has-white-color"> <div class="menu-footer-menu-container"><ul id="footer-menu" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-112" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-112"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/terms-conditions/">Terms & Conditions</a></li> <li id="menu-item-111" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-111"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/about-us/faqs/">FAQS</a></li> <li id="menu-item-113" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-113"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/get-involved/donate/">Donate</a></li> <li id="menu-item-5701" class="menu-item menu-item-type-taxonomy menu-item-object-product_cat menu-item-5701"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/product-category/membership/">Join / Subscribe</a></li> </ul></div> </div> <div class="follow-us"> <h2>FOLLOW US</h2> <div class="social-links has-white-color"><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/manitobahistory"><i class="fa-brands fa-twitter"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/c/ManitobaHistoricalSociety/videos"><i class="fa-brands fa-youtube"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/manitobahistory/"><i class="fa-brands fa-instagram"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/manitobahistory"><i class="fa-brands fa-facebook-f"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@manitobahistory"><i class="fa-brands fa-tiktok"></i></a></div> <div class="registration">BN: 122814601RR0001</div> <div class="member-login has-black-color"> <a href="/login">MEMBER <br/>LOGIN</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="alignfull"> <div class="site-info has-black-color"> Copyright © 2025 Manitoba Historical Society • <a href="/privacy-policy">PRIVACY POLICY</a> • <a href="/terms">TERMS</a> </div> </div> </footer> </div>  <script type="text/javascript"> var sbiajaxurl = "https://www.mhs.ca/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php"; </script> <script type="text/javascript">jQuery(function($){ function load_moneris_payment_form_handler() { window.wc_moneris_payment_form_handler = new WC_Moneris_Payment_Form_Handler( {"plugin_id":"moneris","id":"moneris","id_dasherized":"moneris","type":"credit-card","csc_required":true,"csc_required_for_tokens":true,"environment":"prod","isCheckoutLoggingEnabled":false,"isPayPageEnabled":false} );window.jQuery( document.body ).trigger( "update_checkout" ); } try { if ( 'undefined' !== typeof WC_Moneris_Payment_Form_Handler ) { load_moneris_payment_form_handler(); } else { window.jQuery( document.body ).on( 'wc_moneris_payment_form_handler_loaded', load_moneris_payment_form_handler ); } } catch ( err ) { var errorName = '', errorMessage = ''; if ( 'undefined' === typeof err || 0 === err.length || ! err ) { errorName = 'A script error has occurred.'; errorMessage = 'The script WC_Moneris_Payment_Form_Handler could not be loaded.'; } else { errorName = 'undefined' !== typeof err.name ?
