Amazing story!
For those who ever had a doubt about the sexual abuse that occurred in residential schools - those doubts are now nullified.

Canada should be at the forefront here holding up our own TRC report that called us out for cultural genocide. We must atone for that act (and the many ways it continues today). That is what happens when you abduct and try to brainwash children into your way of society. Russia must be held accountable as well.

And yes... of course he ...
"It should come as no surprise that after the massacres of October 7, 2023, all the loudest voices from the residential-schools “activism” immediately merged with the loudest voices in the ‘From Turtle Island to Palestine’ histrionics."
It's a wonder he sleeps at night with the spirits of innocent victims of genocidal governments swirling around him.
Terry Glavin is the biggest anti-indigenous racist, residential school genocide denier-journalist in all of Canada. (he's also a big Yellow Peril kind of guy which I got into it with him once on Twitter before he blocked me)
Imagine calling lowering flags to half mast for six months due to the nation coming to grips with the DEATH OF THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN "a national psychotic episode"
What an asshole.

The Imprint: Researchers Vow to Continue Preserving Indian Boarding School History Despite Federal Funding Cuts. “Indigenous researchers and archivists are working to minimize the impact from an abrupt federal funding cut late last month that targeted groups preserving the history of Indian boarding schools.”
“On Easter Sunday, Littlechild said he watched the Pope's last public appearance on TV, where Francis was struggling to speak. He died the following morning.
Littlechild said he was very sad to hear of the death but happy Francis has found peace.
He said he has asked the Vatican for permission to attend the Pope's funeral on Saturday.
"To have a friend leave you in this way is sad, and you're at a loss of words."
Francis restored respectful relationships with Indigenous people, Littlechild said.
"But I'm always told that we have a long way to go. And, yes, we do," he said.
"Will the next pope elevate us to that next step?””

I still find it hard to believe that the projections from 338canada (and others) will hold on the Island.
I realize electoral outcomes can and do shift over long periods, but I refuse to believe that, for example, people on the North Island and Powell River will elect this racist fool, Aaron Gunn. He has had that distinction for years because of his consistent denial of residential school genocide.
338 has the CPC a full 10 points above its 2021 outcome, and the NDP 13 below. It beggars belief. The Liberals are not viable here and I have more faith in the electorate than the numbers show.
WE REASONABLE PEOPLE NEED TO MAKE SURE THESE RACIST CANDIDATES DON’T SUCCEED.
VOTE!

Indigenous Residential School, child abuse, murder, genocide
The Petro industry is textbook fascism. Canada is utterly foolish to not deport the Yankee oilmen. Welcoming harm.
Canada, get smart and clear out the yankee fascist infection!!!
"The news of the grim discovery in Kamloops hit close to home for me. All my adult life, I’d heard rumors that my father was born at or near one of those #residentialSchools and that he’d been found, just minutes after his birth, abandoned in a dumpster. Those few details were all he or I knew."

“I care so much about this story being known and understood and not forgotten and not denied.”
So, my friend #BrendaNorrell of #CensoredNews tried an experiment... To see what #DeepSeek had to say about #StandingRock and other stuff (versus #ChatGPT). Ironic that the country that squashed and censored #TianmenSquare would be more "truthful" about similar actions here in the #US.
Rival Chinese and U.S. Companies Respond to Controversial Questions from #IndianCountry
by Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Updated February 1, 2025
"We asked the rival Chinese-owned and U.S.-backed search platforms a series of controversial questions from Indian country, on torture in #ResidentialSchools, critical injuries of #WaterProtectors at Standing Rock, bordertown #racism in #RapidCity, and federal lawsuits filed against #DebHaaland while she was Interior Secretary.
"We asked if the #RioPuerco wash, flowing by #Navajo communities, was contaminated by the #ChurchRock #uranium spill. We also asked who were the Lakota Red Warriors.
"Chinese-owned DeepSeek gave a more detailed description of the critical injuries that water protectors suffered at Standing Rock. China's DeepSeek included #TigerSwan in its response. Neither platform gave information on numerous federal lawsuits in the aftermath of the #resistance to the #DakotaAccessPipeline, or the upcoming trial in North Dakota District Court, #EnergyTransfer v #Greenpeace and #RedWarriorSociety."

The U.S. Interior Did Not Report Thousands of Children's
Deaths in U.S. #BoardingSchools
#CensoredNews, January 20, 2025
"Thousands of Native children died in U.S. boarding schools that were not reported by the U.S. Interior Department in its report, the Washington Post reveals. Suffering from malnutrition, diseases and
abuse, the largest number of unreported children's deaths were at Chemawa Indian Training School in Oregon, followed by Haskel lIndian Industrial School in Kansas. The largest total number of deaths were at Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania. The U.S. Interior reported only 12 deaths at Rapid City Indian Boarding School in South Dakota. However, The Washington Post reveals there were 45 children that died there. At the #PineRidge Boarding School, the Interior reported only 4 children died, when there are 10 documented deaths of children."

U.S. Interior Report Fails to Reveal Thousands of Deaths of Native Children in 'Prison Camps' -- U.S. Boarding Schools
'Run, run as fast as you can'
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 13, 2025
"Thousands of #NativeChildren died in U.S. boarding schools that were not reported by the U.S. Interior Department in its report, the Washington Post reveals. Suffering from malnutrition, diseases and abuse, the largest number of unreported children's deaths were at Chemawa Indian Training School in Oregon, followed by Haskell Indian Industrial School in Kansas. The largest total number of deaths were at Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania.
"The U.S. Interior reported only 12 deaths at Rapid City Indian Boarding School in South Dakota. However, The Washington Post reveals there were 45 children that died there. At the #PineRidgeBoardingSchool, the Interior reported only 4 children died, when there are 10 documented deaths of children.
"At #SaintLabre Indian Mission Boarding School in Montana, the Interior reported only one child died. However, thirty-three children are documented as dying there. The same #CatholicBoardingSchool was successfully sued by the Northern Cheyenne Nation for exploiting children in fundraising scams and funneling millions to the Catholic Church.
"The year-long investigation by The Washington Post documented that 3,104 students died at boarding schools between 1828 and 1970 -- three times as many deaths as reported by the U.S. Interior Department. The actual number of deaths could be as high as 40,000, since deaths of children in unmarked graves were either never reported or the records were destroyed."

I saw a post by a residential school apologist on FB about how residential schools were good because they saved Indigenous children (especially girls) from being cannibalized by their parents. Who the fuck believes this shit? #racism #ResidentialSchools
