Yep. Life pre-contact was hellish: primitive conditions (with -40C winters), disease, hunger, slavery, and constant war. Leftists should read some history. Aboriginals of today have wealth and opportunities their ancestors could not imagine. Aboriginals should be celebrating European contact.
I'm a bit suspicious about the whole "mass graves" thing. Back then, if there really was a mass genocide, the organizations could've just burned the bodies and destroyed the evidence. Why would they go through the trouble of burying people, if they didn't really care?
There weren't any mass graves. Do,you read the news?
I put it in "quotation marks" because I know these weren't mass graves. If anything, they were marked with a wooden cross that decayed over time.
Reconciliation begins with ending the indian act.
This makes too much sense for the leftards.
If this hadn't happened, they'd be complaining about how these children were neglected by the evil settlers.
What's been taught in public schools for the last 20-30 years is that it was cultural genocide, forcible assimilation. This may be true but the schools don't provide evidence, they teach a narrative. The fact that only one side of the story is taught (absolutely zero consensual or beneficial examples) means that the whole truth is not being taught. This is propaganda-like.
Identity politics has become the default in Canada, so I expect the narrative being taught currently and in the future to be far more unbalanced (to put it softly).
Yes. Leftist of the time created RS. Leftists of today condemn them but vow to repeat their mistakes of big government with authoritarian control. It would be comical if they didn't wield so much power.
Isn't building stuff on an "ancient Indian burial ground" a literal stereotype? Almost like stereotypes come from something true, or in the case something we forgot that could have been common.
If anyone should be ashamed of the past it should be leftists. Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, repression, poverty, and mass murder. Communism and socialism has a failure rate of 100%. Most mass graves are communist. Yet today leftists proudly proclaim that they follow these hellish schools while condemning Canada and Catholics for their efforts in the nearly-impossible job of teaching primitive people to thrive in a modern world. Leftists are hateful, racist hypocrites.
