When taking down the garage, their contractor discovered human remains. When such remains are found on a property, a legal process is triggered. Of course, police must be called to make sure it’s not a missing person or a murder victim. In this case, the police determined the remains were very old, just like those, as it turned out, that had been found on other properties all along their street. These remains are believed to be over 1,000 years old. When ancient remains are found in Ontario, it triggers a different process, an archeological one, with the potential to bankrupt property owners and prevent them from controlling their own land.
