A new book published by True North examines how the residential school story hardened into orthodoxy — and why challenges to it sparked intense backlash.
Between the two books written about this fabrication, people should realize that that's what it was - a total fabrication & I'm sure there were pockets lined for those who lied about what actually happened at those sites. That's not to say there wasn't some crap going on in the schools. I'm specifically referring to the (not) graves. Where did all the millions of dollars that the Feds provided go? Nothing has been proven which to me means, there was absolutely NOTHING TRUE about the story & the Government needs to be held accountable for the taxpayer funds spent. Another waste of money to prove a negative. This government just knows how to waste money both inside & outside of Canada. It's sickening & disgusting.
The residential lies about children that were killed at Kamloops schools was a money grab for the native people and the liberal government started all these lies.
Mark carney needs to be removed.
He is stealing Canadians money to profit himself in Brookfield and his wife is behind it all.
A person is accused of a crime and it hits the First Page of a newspaper for all to see. Then a few days later he is exonerated BUT the paper carries the story on Page 7. What story do you think the masses will remember?
I think this whole residential school dead body farce thing was done deliberately by the WEF and UN controlled globalist liberals to divide the nation.
And they succeeded in their quest. Canada is broken to the point of no return.
This nation is fucked forever and is unstoppable run over over by Muslims and Sikhs.
The end result will be civil war and that is the reason the liberals want to disarm us civilians to prevent an armed uprising they cant stop if we can defend ourselves.
Tatanka I agree with you. I feel like Cda is beyond repair and among friends we feel we could be heading to a civil war. So many indigenous want to shut down Cda but still expect full continuous monetary compensation for land that was never developed and worth very little at the time!
Thanks for sticking on the story and striving for truth. It seems the "graves" story is a perfect example of the Corrosive nature of Concern:
The Corrosive Concern Cycle: Why it’s unwise to compromise.
Concern – Someone points out a problem. Hey, this isn’t fair. That’s not right. These people have been hurt.
Compassion – There’s virtue in giving voice to a victim. It feels good to care. Compassion is about pity for “victims.”
Consensus – Whether due to the Overton window, our nature to want to belong to a group, or to be agreeable, we see or feel that “most” “agree” on an issue in that it is important and “good” people feel something should be done about it.
Compromise – Something is done to demonstrate support for those impacted by an issue. Victims must be helped. Government support is the answer to the suffering of victims. It’s never about how to help others become personally responsible. Instead, “we” (the collective or government) must do something for “them,” the victims.
Criticism – Those arguing in favor of an issue are emboldened after they see the compromise. Their view is validated. Victims are virtuous. They see your expression of concern, compassion, and perceived consensus. They also see the compromise. Yes, we were right. You have acknowledged such and given us something. Now, they expand their ask.
Contrition/Compunction/Cowardice – People don’t want to be deemed as mean and nasty by suggesting any limit or pushback to those arguing in favor of an issue. Having yielded compassion, consensus, and compromise, subsequent criticism stings and guilt is felt further fueling fear of saying anything.
Concession – Easier to cede small things to keep the peace. Conflict avoidance and compassion are offered as noble objectives or intelligent goals favoring further concessions.
Capitulation – Once concern and compassion have been acknowledged and compromises made the beneficiaries are never satisfied. Each concession is met with a greater ask. No line can be drawn as the acknowledgement that the issue is important and warrants attention has been made repeatedly. There is never a retreat nor satisfaction on the part of those advocating. Demands ever increase. We’re sliding down the slippery slope and there’s nowhere to grope.
Compulsion – The arguments for further concessions become more than requests but demands that aim to be backed by law or force.
Collapse – The cycle can’t sustain itself. Reality is ignored. Even though you can’t get blood from a stone, the demands continue. Collapse is the only way for the corrosion of concern to conclude.
Apply above to the Buried Bodies Hoax.
Concern: Some kind of geological anomaly is measured near a church/school that was a Residential School in the distant past.
Compassion: Yes, some stories of strict treatment of school attendees exist, even some abuse. We, normal, civilized people, feel bad for what some suffered.
Consensus: All mainstream media manage the same message. Bodies buried bad. Residential schools were universally awful. Residential schools were an insult to the indigenous. Residential schools ruined our first nations folk for not just those that went there but any first nations folk forever into the future.
Compromise: Flags flown at half mast for six months.
Criticism: It’s not enough. More action required.
Contrition: Residential schools bad. This has been acknowledged. All we can do is feel further guilt.
Concession: Orange shirt days. More land use acknowledgements. Expand email signatures to include acknowledgements.
Capitulation: Massive amounts of money offered with zero accountability assigned. Truth and Reconciliation day created.
Compulsion: If raise questions, ok to shout down. If raise questions, accuse of being denialists. If raise questions or ask for evidence of original assertion, laws being sought to make this impermissible.
Collapse: No retreat in asks. No end line defined. More, more, more. No questioning allowed. Give me, give me, give me.
"The Corrosive Concern Cycle: Why it’s unwise to compromise."
Compromise: Com - Promise. COM- "together" Promise - "to promise". An arbiter (judge) determines the conditions that both sides shall agree upon; each side loses something for the gain of what is deemed to be for the common good for each party concerned; a compromise is a trade-off.
To have a "concern" you'd have to be personally effected by some object, entity, or person, etc. Concern is awareness. "Corrosive Concern Cycle"? No such thing.
"Compromise: Flags flown at half mast for six months". An illusion that a flag flown a half mast can win the hearts and the minds of the people of Canada; an empty performance.
Residential schools; Foundation: teach the native peoples the english language, to read and to write that they may understand European culture. Purpose: commerce and trade. You cannot contract with anyone who cannot understand the language written within a contract.
Today, there is not one native in Canada who does not know the english Language. Show me the harm done.
I tried to get data on mortality rates for residential schools in Northern Canada and boarding schools in England and Canada and the US in the late 1800s and early 1900s. No luck.
But a few things stuck out. One of Canada's most famous demographers told me his cousin related the story of his parents arriving at his residential school (not all residents were Amerindian in the Prairies) and waving to him through the window. They were not allowed to meet as there was a plague sweeping through as was wont to happen in the pre-vaccine era. Waves of disease did happen frequently.
Thus it would not be surprising to see a graveyard outside of a residential school or boarding school. A lot of people died in bunches back in the day.
Additionally, the photos I've seen of residential school residents showed the kids to look pretty good. There were lots of rounded cheek and no gaunt faces. However, any photo showing otherwise might not have made it to publication.
But how bad were residential school mortality rates compared to those on the reserves? I'd have to guess that health on the reserves was a whole lot worse.
Residential schools were designed to remove children from the cycle of endemic poverty and malnutrition on the reserves. And definitely they were designed to "elevate" natives from their "primitive" culture into European culture. So yes, effectively they were part of wiping out native culture.
But they certainly weren't designed to wipe out generations of children nor is there any physical evidence that this occurred on any level.
I know our tax dollars have funded the indigenous people for decades. How about the indigenous banks reimburse the churches and congregations that were decimated due to 'hate speech', because accusations instigated the actions.....
HOW???
Well...
Let's start with an incompetent TURDeau supported by incompetent Ministers and MPs.
Then let's move on to a corrupt and incompetent bureaucracy.
Add a flock of virtue signalling and scared Premiers.
Add in a large helping in self-serving indigenous leaders and followers.
Mix in another large helping of woke-joke, progressive types.
Then add in an almost entire population afraid to say WTF!!!!
OK...
Got the idea??
Ecellent !!!

The Liberal waste of borrowed money just doesn’t stop and our grandchildren will have to pay for it.
A person is accused of a crime and it hits the First Page of a newspaper for all to see. Then a few days later he is exonerated BUT the paper carries the story on Page 7. What story do you think the masses will remember?
The mere notion that OUR governing bodies perpetuate these lies is beyond pathetic, and depraved! Meanwhile continuing the extortion payments.
I think this whole residential school dead body farce thing was done deliberately by the WEF and UN controlled globalist liberals to divide the nation.
And they succeeded in their quest. Canada is broken to the point of no return.

BINGO!!!..🎯...
CARNEY NEEDS WAY MORE THAN JUST REMOVAL! HE AND HIS CABAL OF UNACCOUNTABLES NEED TO BE CHARGED WITH CRIMES AGAINST THE PEOPLE
FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO CANADA AND ALL ITS PEOPLE! RCMP ARE NEEDED
TO PROTECT THE PEOPLE AND NOT THE GOVT. AND CROOKED POLITICIANS WORKING
FOR THE WEF/NWO NETZILCH BULLSHIITE, ET AL!!

Well thought out & written Ben. You've said it all in a nut shell!

You can't get anything so persistently wrong without obsessive intentionality.
Its the "entire population afraid" that's done us in
All politicians are either black mailed or bought off
I know our tax dollars have funded the indigenous people for decades. How about the indigenous banks reimburse the churches and congregations that were decimated due to 'hate speech', because accusations instigated the actions.....
