"In August 2024, one of us — retired psychiatrist Dr. Brian Talarico — visited the long shuttered Indian Residential School on British Columbia’s Kamloops Indian Reserve."
Well, shoot, if someone offered me money to talk about all the abuse I suffered as a child (and the more lurid the story, the higher the payment), I could probably come up with some pretty good material too. No memories required - just imagination.
But would you actually do that? Like most upstanding citizens, probably not. I would like to hypothesize that the people accepting these "compensatory" payouts are just being told by their leaders to simply "sign here" and don't ask questions.
Isn't it amazing how large amounts of other people's money can improve memory and story telling when there is zero validation or investigation as to the truth and reality of those memories or stories.
Isn't it also amazing that with all the time, money and energy spent in creating what appears to be an incredibly false narrative that to this day not a single cent as been spent on validating even a single memory or story or tale told.
The residential school myth continues to be funded by tax payers while no evidence ever comes forth, the myth continues to be supported by government and citizens continue to be sucked in.
The documentary "making a killing" shows how this problem has been manufactured under our governments watch and actually with their help ... Alberta please separate and start the ball rolling
"Japan suffered the devastating effects of two atomic bombs and the loss of belief in the emperor as a direct descendant of God. Germany experienced the blanket firebombing of Dresden..."
These loses were used by the west to destroy the prior culture of these countries. The "indian reservation" is used to Canada for the same purpose, denigrate the past, erase history as a reference, and put in a new culture - in this case George Soros Open Society, pro global, anti-patriotism. Canada's Indian myth is US's slavery past, is UK's colonial past, Australia's Aborigine- past. The Indian one occurred like George Floyd. It's a government propaganda campaign.
The residential schools, fiasco is perpetrated by a few native bands for nothing more than monetary compensation, and these so-called hereditary chiefs are mere shamans, but hold immense power over a large native population.
"Yet, because of the commonality in the reports, trauma advocates uncritically took this as proof that the reports were trueful." Obviously, "truthful" was intended. And later on one encounters: "Tob be sure." This is a very good op-ed, but it does raise the question: "Does Juno News not have a copy editor?"
Peter, I am a paying subscriber to Juno News, so I thought that was one of the things I was paying for. Juno News really should worry about things like this that make them look like a low quality outfit.
While I'm a stickler for using correct English, I'm willing to accept a few minor typos if it assists with the efficiency of getting the story out in a timely manner.
I'm more concerned that the content is thorough and complete. There's nothing worse than reading a story that forgets to include obvious basic information, simply because the story is not proofread for completeness prior to publication.
All lies, absolutely disgusting what these ingrates are doing. The time is getting close to, where good people are going to be forced to do bad things!

Sick and tired of listening to this indian bs.

Yes, if you pay her salary.

I mean the CBC gets it wrong 90% of the time on radio and TV. God forbid Juno had a spelling mistake...
