Personally know three people, one my parent, that got an education at those 'away' schools. All are fine educated people. You've mistakenly lumped all students at the away schools as victims, and many native students are now playing the 'survivor game' because it can be lucrative and advantageous . . . Carry on . . . the world awaits your insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't take responsibility for what they did. Too late What we can do today - and that includes first nations - is say 'well crap happened and we can't fix the past - what do we need to do in order to get the ship back on course today". And that ALSO means the first nations - it's insane how they freqently demand gov't fix their problems that they claim gov't caused in the first place. Like... didn't you learn your lesson? It's not just you ya know - gov't messes EVERYBODY up - look elsewhere. But pandering and feeling guilty or blaming the child for the sins of the parents is pointless and just holds people back. Get over it. You're a grown ass adult right? You get to choose how your life goes, walk your path with a smile and imagine a better future. 13 hours ago, cougar said: Racist? There are many shades of grey. I am probably racist but not to the point of using the gas chambers.....unless those "minorities" don't stop multiplying like rabbits. Well nice to know you put SOME limits on it Racism is bad dude. It's something for you to work on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Army Guy Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 14 hours ago, BeaverFever said: Could they be any worse off than currently? Very little useful education was done at many those schools, it was religious instruction, agricultural labour, etc. Did indigenous education at any time, prepare young Indigenous people to cope in the new world. Residential schools stopped in 1996 i find it hard to think they only taught religious instruction and agricultural labor... Even today Indigenous young people are not forced to attend school, many fail to even complete high school, and most do not take advantage of higher learning opportunities, like universities, or collages...That is a individual choice, like staying in the same northern communities, opting to stay on the same track or life style as many of their elders... It is OK to blame another culture for past mistakes, but in todays world are we still oppressing them, still holding them back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impartialobserver Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 I find it strange that most modern folk celebrate/honor/take pride in their heritage. Most everybody is a mutt of english, french, german, italian, fill in the blank european, etc. This mixing... they had zero control over and so what is there to be proud of. You randomly are the offspring of a two parents that are a mix of a bunch of others...seems more like luck more than anything to be proud of.

Why wouldn't they? I mean - pretty much everyone's ancestors had SOMETHING positive to be proud of and remembering that and realizing we have the chance to build on their accomplishments is wonderful. Also - it helps kids feel like they're part of something bigger and that keeps them grounded. its actually very important. As long as you don't take it too far. 43 minutes ago, impartialobserver said: Most everybody is a mutt of english, french, german, italian, fill in the blank european, etc. This mixing... they had zero control over and so what is there to be proud of.

And the path your forefathers had to take so that you could have the opportunites of today was far from just luck. Our ancestry can inspire us, make us greatful for what they sacrificed and worked for so that we could exist and have what we have, it's a tie between the past and the future and puts our own lives into perspective in the big picture. It shows us what CAN be accomplished by people like ourselves and pushes us to accomplish more. Now - if ALL You're celebrating is your skin colour then yeah that's pretty pointless.

Maybe the Reconciliation day is a good Day of Shame ? I want to see the day when good old whitey gets to be recognized for the good that they have done to humanity. The white folk have done wonders and brought technology to many non-white countries or at least have tried too. What happened in the past to the native Indians has nothing to do with me today. Those white people are now long gone. We need to stop trying to blame old whitey of today for all that has happened to the native Indians in the past. Even with all of the taxpayer's tax dollars giving to them over the centuries, they still whine and cry about old whitey and how mean we white folk are. What a bunch of ingrates. Many non-white countries have treated their native Indians like chit. Wake up, lulu. I owe the native Indians in this country. Old whitey has done more for the native Indians in Canada. For one thing, old whitey was able to bring to an end the killings between the different Indian tribes here in Canada. They use to go hunting to try and kill each other. They do not kill each other anymore. Thank you, white people. ? Reconciliation day is just another excuse for the wasteful federal government spending of taxpayer's tax dollars to try and look good, when in fact, they could care less about the native Indians just like they could care less about white folk. ☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I truly know that you are suffering from the real beaver fever disease. Better have it looked at. And what a silly azz reply from a silly azz himself. FYI, I only will dress up in white costumes to represent my white race. Ha-ha-ha. 2. But it is all okay with you that we all need to celebrate Black, Asian or Sikh history week or month but not be able to do the same for white people. That is racism against the people who first founded and built up this once great country, which is today starting to look more like a non-white country. Look around you, fool. All that you post here always looks mighty dumb to me. 3. WTF? Gesus man. How did you get this far in life with so little. It's amazing. ?

It's not just Vancouver. There are disputes all over Canada with these tribes of trouble making native Indians. The native Indians pretty much own all of BC. today. There is nothing that can be done without their approval. If any mining or oil company wants to do anything on their so called land, then they have to get the approval of the Indians first. Thousands of jobs are in the waiting because of these bunch of ingrates to allow the work to begin. Most times in the end, they get what the want. MONEY. If the offer is appealing looking, then all is okay. Write the Indian a check. You have no idea about what is going on in BC. So, STHU. ?

And why shouldn't they? Everyone is compelled to go to school and get a basic education. Why should Aboriginal children have been exempt? Do you seriously think school should have been optional? Why should Canadians be paying billions of dollars for aboriginals children who were required to go to school back in the mid 20th century. This is just another insane payout by the Liberal-NDP shysters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbird Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 Canadians are being scammed right and left and required to pay compensation for aboriginal children who attended day school. How is this reasonable? If someone was abused that is one thing. But paying every kid who went to school tens of thousands of dollars because they were allegedly deprived of some dead native language is ludicrous and a scam. If that is the case, I am sure will come up with excuses to make Canadians pay and pay forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
