Despite the anti-Catholic narrative that RTE are spinning around this terrible story, the Guardian has reported comments by Justin Trudeau “Canadians are horrified and ashamed by their government’s long time policy of forcing Indigenous children to attend boarding schools where nearly 1,000 unmarked graves have now been discovered”.
Around 751 unmarked graves were discovered on the grounds of the former Marieval Indian residential school in Saskatchewan which operated from 1899 to 1997.
From the 19th century until the 1970s, more than 150,000 Indigenous children were forced to attend state-funded Christian schools in a campaign to assimilate them into Canadian society by British colonialists.
According to the Guardian, Liberal Left Trudeau who was exposed earlier for his “blackface” appearance said;
“This was an incredibly harmful government policy that was Canada’s reality for many, many decades and Canadians today are horrified and ashamed of how our country behaved,” It was a (government) policy that ripped kids from their homes, from their communities, from their culture and their language and forced assimilation upon them.”
