Similar signs have graced landfills and residential front yards ahead of Halloween for decades.

But the dark joke no longer lands in light of the discovery of human remains in a Manitoba landfill last year, and the belief that other Indigenous women were similarly murdered and discarded near Winnipeg.

      The article says the order came from the corporation that owns the facility and says nothing about the government. Do you have evidence that the government was behind it?

        It says:

        “Regional district staff instructed the landfill operator to immediately remove the sign and to destroy it, so as to ensure a similar error does not occur again,” Sailland added.

        I interpreted that to be a government district, but I can see how it could be a fully private enterprise.
