The Nazis were held accountable for their war crimes. I see no difference in locating the priests and nuns and the brothers who are responsible for this mass murder to be held accountable for their part in this attempt of the genocide of an Indigenous people." 

From the 19th century until the 1970s, more than 150,000 Indigenous children were forced to attend state-funded Christian boarding schools in an effort to assimilate them into Canadian society. Thousands of children died there of disease and other causes, with many never returned to their families. 

Nearly three-quarters of the 130 residential schools were run by Roman Catholic missionary congregations, with others operated by the Presbyterian, Anglican, and the United Church of Canada, which today is the largest Protestant denomination in the country. 

I simply cannot swallow the fact as one of lousy Catholics!

How they could do that under the name of Jesus Christ? In Canada? Not 'shameful' but 'condemned' activity as the worst murderer!

How it could happen?  Are there any written documents in this regard? I am sure the priests in particular- don't know the denomination but mostly!- have left some records on such horrible outcomes if they were genuine Christians.

After all, they are the same human beings like us, not better not worse!!!

I don’t anticipate that I’ll stop having nightmares or pain for the next two years. The next two years, you’re going to find many, many, many, many more graves."

Why next two years? I don't get it but I feel so pissed off with my rosy(?) image of Canada. Indeed, I always envied(?) Canadians as our ideal model peoples and seriously consented to join to Montreal group to spend my rest of career, though not many years left,while I was at Vancouver for Canadian Society Meeting two years ago, if mother fucker Tramp should get reelected, God forbids!!!

So, Canada is not much different or rather worse than the U.S. in terms of racism point of view, then!? Amazing, simply amazing!!! How it could be?  Did they really kill those children, or ?  By Catholic priests and nuns?

At least, the last known genocide here in the U.S. territory was at Wounded Knee on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota on December 29, 1890  supposedly the final chapters of America's long Indian wars - the U.S. Cavalry killed less than 300 Sioux Indians as I remember -.

But Canadians did it such quiet way even after we moved to the U.S., God knows!!!

With broken heart,
