Wait... we’re supposed to denounce the horrors of assimilation and residential schools by having all our kids dress up the same as everyone else in the school?

The left's obsession with RS again. They had little effect on aboriginals but the left uses them to explain every aboriginal problem from alcoholism to child abandonment. The left uses RS to justify anti-white hatred and to generate racial division.
Even at their peak around 1900, less than 5% of aboriginal students attended. Nobody was force to go after 1948. RS schools were tough back then but not much different from other country schools. The horrible plagues of centuries past killed many students, but at a lower rate than aboriginals who were not students. When the government tried to shut down RS, the tribes demanded that they remain open. By a huge margin, the biggest complaint at the schools was bullying be other aboriginal students.
