meanwhile the federal government is concerned with its treatment of usurous strangers from the other side of the planet!

Many white Canadians were also in those residential schools which no one talks about

Well, that was negligible by comparison

but yes, those people are also owed a debt

Which is why these debts need to be enumerated, and closed.

haha ok, tell that to those that came from those schools

i still wana blow up the moon...

I meant by the numbers @Coochie coo

Shoot, man, we need the moon.

Obviously for the people there, they all had to experience it.

but if we blow it up we will have a lot of moons

I meant basically that it was not a common experience for whites

It does important gravity stuff.

wypipo

then we will have many moons doin that

i promise we wont float away

@Coochie coo That debt is payable to the survivors of the system, not ambiguously to first nations people.

just imagine

the thing is, if you pay reconciliations because of the schools then you have to do it for all.... and why only the natives? ... You think the chiefs are really going to want to close this all once and for all? I highly doubt it, hence why this has been going on for so long...

all the moons!

What did this school system do?

feed us bad food

The residential schools for natives

It's true, victimization is a position of strength. They wouldn't want to lose it.

@Coochie coo I explicitly said not only for the natives.

Is this about reparations of some form?

@Undead Mockingbird not retroactive, the people who experienced the policy are still alive.

@Undead Mockingbird well, some of them at least.

Whenever people talk about some form of reparation, I have the urge to remind them that we spend about $1 trillion on welfare/social services each year.

any one have little yellow minions to help me blow up the moon?

@Coochie coo it is part of a set of debts of undue pain and tragedy though, and there are other debts payable to natives alone.

😮

Anyone who is making any kind of hyperbolic claim through some kind of victimhood that has no direct legal basis should keep that in mind.

Well, I recommend you read up on this shit

We have paid reparations 10x over. The American citizenship is one of the most valuable things in the world.

and ask yourself if there should be a legal basis for this debt

Anyone who is alive and US citizen today should be grateful. #NotSorry

I'm not talking about the U.S.

the U.S. has its own problems, I'm talking about Canada

True, but they're talking about Canada.

Pretty much the same for Canada.
