A month ago, I offered some predictions about how Canadian journalists would cover the five-year anniversary of the country’s infamous “unmarked graves” social panic, which began on May 27, 2021. On one hand, this kind of important landmark would be difficult for news outlets to ignore. (After all, this was considered the Canadian “Story of the Year” at the time.) On the other hand, any intellectually honest retrospective that these outlets produced would require at least some passing explanation as to why the entire Canadian media establishment had fallen hook, line, and sinker for a story that turned out to be fake—something that most journalists have so far proven unwilling to do.
On Wednesday, it will have been exactly five years since the Kamloops First Nation in British Columbia claimed it has found 215 unmarked graves of Indigenous children on the grounds of the community’s former residential school. In the weeks that followed, gullible reporters transformed the narrative into a kind of horror-movie script, complete with mass murdering priests and midnight burials.
It all turned out to be complete nonsense. In five years, not a single actual grave has been found.

When the grievance industry goes all the way through the SCOC and into the PM’s office where the drama teacher in chief took a knee with teddy bears, his fawning and bought-off media had to follow. It’s all part of the big lie that became the defining narrative of the institutional left. It’s still the “consensus” du jour of the progressive in-crowd.

Although in this case, the Stockholm syndrome and rent seeking opportunities are so pervasive that most of them very likely do believe it.
“A consensus means that everyone agrees to say collectively what no one believes individually”
So a conspiracy. A conspiracy to defraud the Canadian taxpayer and the government was/is in on it.
My X account just got suspended/banned for commenting about this issue to several leftist droogs this past week.
Specifically the meme Every Hoax Matters.
Also gave Guy Fellicella lots of crap this week too, he of the junkie zombie club in Wangcouver. Maybe it was him.
It’s appealed, but you don’t know what happens for a few days. Group/Mass complaint bots are known to get many suspended by false reports, it’s a known guerilla tactic on social media.

Five years ago this week, radar technology located the remains of 215 former residential students. Now, the country is still trying to understand what it is they found among the apple trees.
We set out to learn what has happened since as uncertainty gives rise to doubt and denialism.”

All hail the sacred narrative from the State of Thuggery.
All the cockroaches swarmed into the light,with the lisping wonder front and centre.
Now ,given the way power is concentrated into our Prime Ministers Office, this lie was no accident.
Think we will ever get an apology?
The Prime Minister Office deliberately and knowingly lied to us.
The so called members of parliament played along.
The national presstitutes sang from the official songbook.
These lowlife vermin stated as fact,that our parent and grandparents operated a Genocidal State.
A most base slander that they knew to be a lie.
The gimmee dat industry leapt onto the graveytrain,more than happy to push this lie for more handouts.
All perfectly willing to lie,to further their agenda.
And now they wonder why Alberta is about to leave them..
I believe we shall demand some retribution.
At $250,000 each, the Kamloops band could have been the proud owners of 48 brand new John Deere 410 backhoes,if they wanted to blow the $12 million all at once. Assuming 215 sets or remains, that’s less than 5 holes per machine, so gently used. They could have even started a lucrative business with said backhoes, trenching in new piping for clean drinking water for their fellow injuns. I suspect that as usual, the chief has a new F350 or Escalade and his close relatives have big Samsungs hanging on the walls of their free houses, also paid for by guilt ridden whities.
Silly Eskimo. You forgot to add the cost of;
Medicine men,

And all the Grievance Industry Managers.
The list is long. And as they say … the Labor cost is 2/3 the cost of doing anything. Lots and lots of overhead …

215 children over 88 years does not sound like a ‘mass murder’
They wrote the story(ies). The disgusting lies. Waiving the flag over specious side scan sonar readings. The five year story should absolutely pound the ever-living shit out of the individual who performed the scans and interpreted them in this way followed by an excoriation of the leftist muckraking press. All of the above should be shamed loudly for every syllable they wrote to the extent that they can no longer find meaningful employment. The whole thing is so ridiculous that any holder of a bachelor’s degree in archaeology, upon cursory review, would find the supposed evidence unreliable at best. The images should compel no one to draw such wild conclusions under any circumstance.
For those of us in the un-documented insurance industry, we think it is great that there are spots where burial plots are not disturbed.
