Where Would We Be Without Oral History?

1. And each death is documented as result of an infection not “murdered” or herded onto a rail car.
   Ironically around that time an actual genocide was taking place in Europe.

   1. And each death is documented …

      Because that’s what a modern, western culture does. We document things; for posterity, for permanent records, for future analysis, for critical understanding … for care. Because we care, and every life is sacred (or it used to be).

      And we document things … because we can. We have written languages, dictionaries, and writing/recording devices. We have Literature using the language to help us interpret all the intricacies of life. We write stuff down … or type it, with carbon paper copies (ca.1935-45)

      Nope. Oral history is mangled history. Ask any police officer, or court official … eyewitness accounts are always sketchy and unreliable at best. And the further in time one is removed from the history … the more fantastical the account. Psssst … it’s why bodycams tell the story better than any eyewitness remembrance.

      1. “But we have cave drawings enscribed in stone…”

         1. Pictorial history to go with the oral history
            We can only guess what the pictures mean. Or ask the ‘knowledge keepers’ SMH

2. Gee, how surprising.

   “If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If the law and the facts are against you, pound the table and yell like hell.”

   And if you’ve been running this scam for 50 years, pounding and yelling the whole time so that nobody listens to your bullsh1t anymore, you argue “oral history.”

3. The denialism about the residential schools is the abidiginal’s denial of cold facts and hard truth.

   When feeling sorry for yourself pays big bucks, you become a professional whiner.

4. Both my parents grew up in small villages in Northern Ont. A few hundred population, 1 room school houses. Only the better off families could afford to send their kids off to be boarded for high school (not my parents).
   Part of my oral history as a child was hearing them talk about old childhood friends (none were “aboriginal”) dying of TB. measles, whooping cough and in particular scarlet fever.
   Other part of oral history – these and other villages used to hold dances, kids went by train, so the villages could avoid inbreeding. How my parents met.

5. The documented death toll of students at the IRSs was 423 over 130 years which is close to the Canadian average over those years but significantly less than the rate of child deaths on the reserves. The “Truth and Reconciliation” commission report included all deaths within one year of having attended an IRS and some deaths of people too young or old to have attended but it made for greater settlement payments. The entire scam is a prop in the theatre of the grievance industry which includes the SCOC and every PM since it began who have either played contributing or leading roles (the Spawn).

6. I attended high school in the 1960s. Almost every year there was an “in memoriam” in the year book. Maybe 1/500 students died. Not necessarily in the same three years but I remember a few. One skinny and sickly looking. I don’t know what he died from. I would guess heart or cancer issues. One died of a brain tumour. One drowned and another burned in a stupid accident playing with gasoline. Remember how cheap medical care was in the 1960s? That’s because hospitals could cure very little. Nowadays people expect to come home from hospital. It wasn’t so 60 years ago.

7. When Canada first got LAID.

   That “oral history” was first accepted by Liberal-appointed Judges and probably devised by the Liberal Party in one of their first steps in destroying Canada.

   The Liberal Party killed Canada well before its time.

   Liberal Assistance In Dying.

   It seems like an assisted suicide but it is definitely a murder.

   It doesn’t appear that we will require the third Trudeau.

   1. No it’s not the country being killed, it’s Canadians the old stock kind.
      The other side of that equation is they are doing everything possible to protect the government.

8. So how do I shout out “Cover-up by Whitey!” in the Kamloops language?

   1. Allow me to write it out for you in the Secwepemcúĺecw language … $’$$’$$

      1. Isn’t that Ojibwe? And maybe Sarcee?

         1. Sarcee? You racist white person. That would be Tsuutʼina. The Sarcee used to live in the Athabasca valley. The Cree, coming from the east, occupied the area pushing the Sarcee south, and their cousins, the Beaver, north. The Sarcess then moved south to around Calgary. I am sure all these land transfers were all duly documented and notarized. After all, Indians would never just take land like the white man.

9. Why are you still trying to reason with these people?
   Luke 10:10-11

10. I still believe that Alberta and Saskatchewan should vote to leave this genocidal racist colony called Canada that is filled with mass graves of tens of thousands of murdered native school children.
    How could we in good conscience stay?

    1. “How could we in good conscience stay?”

       Yes, indeed.
       I think that the Canadian flag should be flown at half-mast and kept there until every single poor little native school child’s corpse has been dug up and given a full forensic autopsy.
       I’ll wait.
       It’ll bring a tear to my eye to see the Canadian flag that way.

11. Jean Chrétien was one of 19 children, 10 of whom died in infancy.

    Many families have similar stories.

    1. Killed by their toxic whiteness?

       1. Poutine

          1. Infant poutine … mash it all up into poutine goo. LOL

12. Muslims call self-serving deception “taqiyya.”

    Progressives do much the same thing, and call it “lying to take advantage of the normies.”
