Charlatans like Carleton have built careers by cozying up to indigenous activists committed to tearing this country down. Canada’s treatment of its indigenous people has been largely honourable- better than the others. We should acknowledge our mistakes, but take pride in what we did right. And we should learn to ignore vultures, like Carlton

Not many children are sent to boarding schools I was. In UK and Australia.

It was considered by society BITD that to be able to send children to boarding schools was an act of great parenting and good fortune for the children.

The entire indigenous residential grave story was a massive hoax. It was seized upon by a dilettante prime minister and his corrupt regime to foster hate for political gain.

I’m glad you have dedicated your time and effort to enlarging on this subject.

What was boarding school like for me ? In UK children were seen and not heard. That’s the summation of “residential “ school for me.

Australia was different. I was English. Australians at that time despised the English. Loosing my “ pommie accent” was a primary objective for the “ true Aussie’s “ the many bullies, I had to

face.

So what do I know of Canadian residential schools? Only what you write that I can depend on.

The truth is that as a learning institution I found the schools were excellent. I learned well. For my interpersonal experience of fellow students racist and abusive group think? Not unlike ten years of Trudeau’s self entitled narcissism.
