There are a few researchers in Canada seeking the truth, and growing documented evidence that debunks the myths and misinformation hurtful to indigenous Canadians.
Certainly, there are many "Truth Seekers" but unfortunately, the main- stream media is not one of them. Many of the "poor me" articles appearing on the federal victim hood holiday contained the following fallacious propaganda statement:
"Until 1997, the Residential School System saw indigenous children ripped from their homes and families".
All that was missing was the background theme music from Law and Order. The reality is that sensationalism sells news, and the goal is not to inform but to alarm. In the words of Shakespeare.
WHOSE TONQUE SOE'ER SPEAKS FALSE, NOT TRULY SPEAKS, WHO SPEAKS NOT TRULY, LIES
Today, Oct. 23 2022, in the Victoria Times Colonist, journalist Clara Huber writes about abuse at the Tsarlip Indian day school. One "survivor," Angel Sampson, says that "one of the sisters took us to the forest so we could learn how to have sex," and in a further direct quote from the article, says "She (the nun) was teaching six and seven year old boys to rape me. I remember laying on the ground and seeing their faces. I had to look away because their faces looked so embarrassed." This is insane. When did this happen? Are any of the boys around to corroborate the story? How did the nun get away with this... I mean, wouldn't one of the kids have said something to somebody? This is a pretty wild story, which, if true, is really horrible. However, how do you prove or disprove something like this? A "survivor" has told her story. Is that enough?
I particularly liked the debunking of Murray Sinclair and his commission’s wild assertions.
