Many children had bad experiences at residential schools, but many reported positive experiences. TRC Commissioner Littlechild said that if not for his 14 years at residential school he would have ended up as a drunk on skid row. No child was murdered or secretly buried at the schools, and to suggest that Canadians should be forbidden to say so is exactly the kind of absolutism that the daughter of a Holocaust survivor should fight against, and not argue for.

I live in Ontario and work in a childcare. I also have some Meti ancestry, as well as other European ancestry. I have thought about this. I will not be wearing an Orange shirt today. I would like more information and jump on the bandwagon. I want honesty without emotions. I would like facts without critical race theory and revisionist history. I am not saying that there were bad things that happened in the past. Yet, I know that Canada has a rich history, that we can all be proud to be Canadian. Let us stop being a country that is seen as bad under ideals initiated, approved and followed through by the United Nations Agenda 2030. Let us be Canadians and stand glorious and free. United we are strong.
