In just a couple of months it will be three years since false claims of a discovery of a mass grave of murdered indigenous children in Kamloops B.C., spread around the world. There has still been no excavations. No evidence has been presented, not even the archeologists initial Ground Penetrating Radar report. Becuase of this I will be doing my best to keep my pencil sharp on this file, and present some great pieces by other writers as well. In the coming days I’ll post such a piece written by anthropologist, Hymie Rubenstein. Until then, I offer the following highly opinionated perspective on the continued farce of Canada’s unmarked graves hoax.
The cruel hand of a patriot
It’s septic tiles. It’s not children. We have known this since at least September of 2022 when I published a Historic septic dig casts doubt on Kamloops residential school burial site claims. Indigenous leaders, activists, political leaders, and bleeding-heart useful idiot citizens are so drunk off their own Social Justice kool-Aid that they haven’t bothered to deal with the inconvenient truth that Canada’s “George Floyd moment” is the biggest hoax of modern times. Soon, Canadians will be using the word embarrassment instead of hoax, because a good hoax must at least contain a modicum of cleverness. Not in Canada.
Nope. Our hoaxes are so un-clever, silly and implausible that not even children, presented with the known facts about the controversy, would believe or accept the outrageous claims of the activist/media/political class. Not without an excavation. Not without evidence.
The entire story is neither complex nor interesting. The only word I can think of is “pathetic.”
The people who told a fantastic tale based on Ground Penetrating Radar blips are pathetic. The media who amplified the false story without substantiation are pathetic. The same media, who never corrected the record, and who continue to uphold the false narrative, are doubly pathetic. Our Prime Minister and political leaders, who posed for pictures with teddy bears beside fake graves, and lowered our national flag to half mast for six months, are pathetic. Our celebrities and public figures who couldn’t be bothered to use their influence to point out the obvious, are pathetic. And, perhaps most disappointingly, some Canadians, who know so little about our history and cultural heritage, and who swallowed the lies of indigenous leaders hook, line, and sinker, are also pathetic.
Becuase of this, I’m no longer interested in being a nice, polite Canadian. Nope, I think strength, and sometimes even a degree of cruelty is the ticket. But aside from what I think, cruelty (the opposite of kindness) is an effective means of dealing with liars. Because of child-like emotional outbursts, we have been nice to those we shouldn’t have. We have empathized, where no empathy was warranted. This is the way of white Westerners. We are the nicest door mats the world has ever trampled on.
It’s as if a knife were held to our throats but to avoid any cruelty our assailant may experience as a result of our actions, we choose to do little or nothing. We have all kinds of kindness for everyone, but ourselves.
Essentially, indigenous leaders, Social Justice activists, our weak political leaders, and our morally vacuous media are holding a knife to the throat of Canada, but good Canadians do little but wince, we have even stopped asking, “please do not slit our national throat.” The blade hasn’t reached the jugular yet, but it has broken the skin and we are bleeding.
For years, myself and others have been calling out Canada’s neo-tribal elite indigenous leaders, and indigenous activists, and the indigenous and non-indigenous citizens who believe and support sensational claims of historical injustice. The demands of the “Aboriginal Industry” are always aligned with lucrative financial rewards and settlements (the topic of my next piece). There has been pushback from the activist class, but many Canadians seem to agree, or at least remain open minded to what my colleagues and I are saying.
The truth is, not only did no children ever go missing from an Indian Residential School, no children were ever murdered - a fact that makes it difficult for activists to secure financial settlements. Regardless, lies are told, phony narratives are upheld, and checks are written. To understand this, is the first step that gets one closer to the truth. Apparently though, to repeat it to an indigenous person (even though it is well-established by facts and evidence) is considered cruel. Is it really though?
The second step to becoming a “cruel” Canadian agent of truth concerning the mountains of indigenous falsehoods, is to re-examine ones conception of an Indian Residential School. To consider the possibility that Indian Residential Schools were not perfect, nor were they evil.
There is a strong argument that Indian Residential Schools were actually a net benefit to the indigenous people of Canada. They learned to speak and write in English. They learned math, and all kinds of skills necessary to make it in the modern world. Most importantly, indigenous children were given the life-saving opportunity to get off their reserves. Reserves are the big Canadian mistake and dark chapter (if you must insist Canada has a dark chapter), and the Indian Act is not far behind.
Allow me to qualify the above by saying that the reserve system and the Indian Act were not always so ineffective. They were necessary when they were first created. However, the intent was that eventually Canada’s indigenous people would modernize and integrate with the rest of Canadians. These political devices of segregation were meant to ease integration. Separate nations living parallel to the majority of Canada was not the original intention. The current situation has long outlived its usefulness, and has become the actual dark chapter of indigenous history (not the residential school system like the activists claim).
The Indian Residential Schools were a sanctuary for many abused, neglected, and orphaned indigenous children. Our ancestors knew that it was cruel to take a child from his or her family and community, but they also realized it was far crueler to leave them in unsafe, unsanitary, and in many cases, dangerous unsupervised conditions. Our ancestors were also aware of the rampant physical and sexual abuse that existed on reserves. Our ancestors knew it was cruel not to build Indian Residential Schools, or not to remove some children from the substandard conditions they faced on reserves. It is the Canadians of today who seem not to know this.
In modern times, our efforts to be kind and moral, to forward and promote Reconciliation and Social Justice, are the most misplaced efforts in the history of Canada. Is the reader not sick of naive Canadians who seem oblivious to the evil that exists both inside and outside of Canada, and to the extent by which this evil targets white majority populations? Is the reader not sick of pretending race (at least for white people) isn’t important, when the majority of the world’s people associate with others of like kind? Why do some insist its racist to prefer their own people, yet for the most part, they prefer their own people, but somehow think no one notices. Do they even notice?
But by far the worst thing that the virtue-signaling, useful idiot, white Canadians think, is that it is cruel to be honest and direct to visible minorities. It is not possible to get something more wrong. It is boundlessly cruel to patronize people, including visible minorities, or to not hold them accountable to the same standards as the majority. And it is outrageously cruel to both minorities and the majority to falsely blame historical or present day injustice on the non-existent racial discrimination of the majority population (of one of the most sought-after immigrant destination countries in the world).
While it may be uncomfortable, and even unpopular, it is not cruel to speak factually about Canada’s indigenous people, it is cruel not to. Canada simply needs to grow a pair, and tell the truth.

James;
You have written an excellent and honest account of the Residential School hoax. The first thing any sane Prime Minister would have done under the circumstances is call in the police and conduct an inquiry. Not Trudeau....he couldn't pass up the chance to be the centre of attention that this story afforded him; Whether it was true or not evidently didn't matter to him. And as the truth unfolds these political accomplices fall deaf and dumb. You and others deserve a lot of credit for shining the light of truth on Ottawa's elected 'Ministers without shame".
While it is important to point out that the Kamloops story is simply not true, it's even more important to ask: what work is this not true story doing? I could be wrong, but my own feeling is that the work the story is doing is telling the majority of Canadians they are trash and have always been trash, whatever they have right now they don't deserve, and it's justice for their lives to get worse going forward.
This story is preparing the majority of the Canadian population (a majority which is multi-racial; this is not, ultimately, about identity) for a massive decline in their standard of living, which would otherwise make them very indignant. Stage one is: you deserve this. Stage 2 is: you who are now so poor and helpless, what are you going to do about it?
Arguing about "this is not true!!!!!" is useful but it's also important to argue back in the form of: why are you pushing this lie? What is this lie getting done for you?
