Paul Martin calls a spade a spade on residential schools.

I'm surprised this even made the news. It's been acknowledged to ahve been attempted cultural genocide long ago by the strictest definition of the word. Why would people react so negatively to the G-word if that is what it was?

I don't mind calling a spade a spade either, so perhaps our former prime tax evader would like to cover a large chunk of this education out of pocket, for registering his steamship lines offshore all these years to evade taxes?

Um, I wonder why is it that Martin didn't change much in aboriginal education when he had the chance. Hell's bells, he didn't even offer aboriginals a formal and official apology for the mess that was the residential schools. That was the dude next in line for PM that did that. Typical bombastic rhetoric from aPAULing Martin.
Funny stuff.

Why do we have the cocksucker behind mandatory residential schools, Ukrainian internment and a long list of other "gene" crimes on the $100 bill?

Absolutely. He was into the same gene sh*t Hitler was into. It was a very big movement back in the day.

I think Martin has gone over the edge when he called this a genocide.
What was done to the native kids was bad,,, but a genocide??? C'mon Paul, get it together...eh !!

 

[petros]

The words too big for you Droopy?

CULTURAL genocide.

He said "cultural genocide" and was quite accurate there. There was a definite and strong attempt at squelching any culture that aboriginals had.

They weren't alone in fighting for their culture. Canada's past is disgusting and in many ways nothing has changed.

Yes, I know. Same thing was tried for a variety of cultures.

 

[petros]

It's still going on.
