  2. Good article. Will the author be charged with denialism and hate speech for not towing the line on genocide?

  3. what a load of crap regarding the motives of the council. Brandon city council choose what they did because they are moral cowards and don’t want to have a fight over truth. Much easier to go with the moral rot of the day than contend with liars and hustlers

      1. The entire CPC is not fit for office. From PP on down, they all voted that Canada had committed genocide.

        And they actually call themselves “Conservative”.

  4. Indeed he will, while our prime minister honors a literal Nazi who undoubtedly participated in actual genocide.
    I hate this country.

  5. One only needs to look at the poverty (and ironically obesity), drugs, and despair on EVERY Indian Reservation in North America to see the reason for Residential schools. The native populations cling to their primitive cultures aided and abetted by government checks … and accomplish exactly nothing. In my opinion … THAT’s “cultural genocide” … nay suicide.

    1. You are quite right as to how Indian Affairs has herded modern descendants of indigenous peoples toward failure and suicide, but let’s look into the hypocrisy of the fashionable attacks on residential schools in the light of current Indian Band policies of placing members in .. residences attached to schools, colleges and universities. Their aims are outwardly the same – empowering students to better cope with the larger culture – and the methods are similar – separating students from the dead-end reserves and immersing them in progressive environments. I rubbed shoulders with residential school “survivors” through most of my 80 years and I wouldn’t say they were traumatized beyond what youths of other ethnicities might have experienced in similar circumstances.

      1. I was privileged to meet the Rev Margaret Waterchief who was also a “survivor” of the residential school system except she didn’t think of it in that way. Instead, she insisted on stating openly that the school experience was great and the teachers were encouraging. It was not until she started taking the bus to high school in the nearby town (I gather the residential school only ran to about Grade 8) that she experienced racial prejudice. And she always maintained that it was alcohol, not the residential schools, which wreaked the most havoc on her people.

  6. “When Parliament unanimously passed its motion declaring that residential schools were genocide”

    We must bring to justice every person who was involved with perpetuating the residential schools, the last of which closed in 1996, starting with former minister of Indian Affairs and northern development Jean Cretien.

    1. I could list two airports which need new names seeing that Pearson and PET should be cancelled for their participation in The Genocide.

      1. You won’t be able to pronounce those new names!
        Edmonton has renamed the wards from numbers and very few know which ward they are in granting the shirtless do-gooders the anonymity and blame those bast__ds do not deserve!

  7. Looks like the principal is packing heat in the canoe. Obviously to persuade obstinate parents to hand their kids over.

    1. I can decide if you are being sarcastic or uninformed about reality in the back country of Canada, circa 1904. I am certain everyone of those Indian families had more ‘firepower’ than an individual school principal

  9. The treaty system and native culture was not able to support itself.. Not keeping pace with the ROC by a long shot.. It was not possible to go in and fix the problem because of the treaties.. So boarding schools were the next best thing..

    Harsh.. The cultural genocide of the self imposed internment camp.. When they say children what they really means is their culture.. Not so much destroyed as abandoned and replaced with a more useful one.. Then our leftist trouble makers stepped in to rebuild it all, complete with a written language..

    A hell of a make work project that would obviously rings hollow for anybody not painting pictures or working in soapstone.. A culture under glass, a side show.. A culture on life support.. A truth best avoided..

  10. Well now I feel bad for not buying the orange residential school donuts at Tims a few minutes ago. And turning the radio station at every reconciliation moment.

    And now I’m over it….

    I wonder what the percentage of natives are jabbed given their great distrust and tragic history with Canadian government?

    Or were vaccines just counted among ‘more free crap’ and happily accepted?

    1. ” And turning the radio station at every reconciliation moment.”

      I do the same…swear at the radio and stab the button to change stations.

      “A day to listen” my ass. So tired of all the whining and guilt trips.

  11. How is everyone’s day going, on National PissyFit Day?
    On the one hand, shopping is nice, stores are half empty.
    On the other hand, this country is full of NPC drones following THE NARRATIVE.

  12. There’s a way to fix it. A one time offer to every Indian: half a million in cash on the condition you forfeit your Indian status forever.

    1. No other than Jean Chretien proposed exactly that in the 1980 White Paper, which would have abolished “indian” status permanently in Canada for all of them.

  14. A story is not an analysis, it’s an opinion.

    So when we are asked to hear their stories, it’s clear we are just hearing opinions. We could hold different opinions. But nobody’s going to hear our stories. They come dangerously close to analysis, or what dear leader calls “denial.”

    Whenever you hear about denial, it’s just leftspeak for “you gave an opinion you must not speak in public.”

    Now that alone does not guarantee that denial is truth. The most celebrated form of denial is of course holocaust denial, and just linking any other contrarian opinion to that one is a deliberate attempt to obfuscate, one can quite easily believe in the holocaust and also in the dangers of COVID injections or the fraudulent nature of climate change, or the twisting of truth going on in this whole murky business of T+R.

    I am not that convinced that truth could even be recognized in Canada today. I have seen so few examples of it in recent years that I tend to expect lies to prevail over truth. And nobody is in more denial over that than the people who insist that we adopt their opinions as objective facts. Once you start living lies, you become desensitized and don’t realize they are lies.

  15. Thinking about this, which thing is always dangerous, wasn’t certain Trudeau during the past century that had a hand in the ‘genocide’?
    The current Trudeau, the idiot, would like to tell Canadian plebeians that they should be ashamed for what happened.
    No, it was the politicians that came up with the schemes and run them. They are 100% responsible for the historical situation.
    People going to work every day to make a living, to take care of their families had no hand in it whatsoever.
    There, of course are two parts in this mess, one is the compulsory action of the government and the other is the actual schools.
    They talk about hundreds of graves. Not one was found.
    Then there are cemeteries that are full of dead people, they just died.
    100 years from now, some 6 billion people will be history …. out of here …. gone.
    They will just die, its the way it works.
    The government of this country is even helping out so they die sooner than later.

  16. What was the death rate for indigenous on reservations during the residential school era?
    What was the lot of indiginous peoples that did not learn reading, writing and arithmetic so they could function in the larger world? Fur trapping went out with buggy whips.
    We want truth first, then reconciliation if warranted.
