Canadians searching for children. Why bother? More pain for the native community when the shame of Christianity and whites remains unchanged?

I understand that plans are to seek more bodies to add to Christian atrocities over the years, thanks to the latest ongoing news blip.

All while Christians continue to profit from having forcefully converted our native hosts.

Their Christian churches continue to push their counter to our political views on equality of women and gays.

Have not the religions and governments inflicted enough pain on our natives, that now we will find and display many other bodies, that we will just add to the tally to be ignored.

All while what we should be doing is outlawing those old fascist religions.

Better to improve the water conditions for the many reserves with polluted water than to dig more pain for them, while white colonialist ideas and ideals in how natives are respected stay in the doldrums of actual changes and actions.

I wonder if natives will be included in the digging, or if the whites will take all the jobs of this misguided creation of pain for natives, to appease white consciousness.

I am white and refuse to participate.

I used to think "eloquent" and "incoherent" were mutually exclusive.

I no longer believe that.

You may want to explain what you are referring to (I assume there is some specific story).

I largely agree. The reality of residential schools is sad, but most in our country just don't care.

I assume it has something to do with this.:

More than 200 bodies found at Indigenous school in Canada

The remains of 215 children, some as young as 3 years old, have been found buried on the site of what was once Canada's largest Indigenous residential school — one of the institutions that held children taken from families across the nation.

Chief Rosanne Casimir of the Tk'emlups te Secwépemc First Nation said in a news release that the remains were confirmed last weekend with the help of ground-penetrating radar.

More bodies may be found because there are more areas to search on the school grounds, Casimir said Friday.

In an earlier release, she called the discovery an "unthinkable loss that was spoken about but never documented at the Kamloops Indian Residential School."

From the 19th century until the 1970s, more than 150,000 First Nations children were required to attend state-funded Christian schools as part of a program to assimilate them into Canadian society. They were forced to convert to Christianity and not allowed to speak their native languages. Many were beaten and verbally abused, and up to 6,000 are said to have died.

Yes, the above story is true. And there others like it in Canada. Canada did not treat the tribes living in it's area well.

Yes. The last batch, over 200 of native baby bodies just recently unearthed.

The tip of the iceberg.

I think it quite sick that natives will mourn them in the church of the murderers.

All moral natives will want to rid their reserves of those religions who murdered so many of them, after forcefully converting them.

So should all who have a decent moral sense.

Not even the natives, given that they will continue supporting the murderer's church.

It is better to know than to continue in ignorance.

The damage done to indigenous peoples needs to be brought to light and acknowledged so that true justice can be found and there can be a genuine attempt to rectify past wrongs and to guard against confusing or gorier wrongs.

Thanks for this clarification.

True, but that statement could apply to all natives in all countries. There might be the odd exception but I do not know of any.

The U.S. for instance, had it's long march that murdered many.

I agree that the damage has to stop and all the babies need to be found, but not now when digging for water for the living is more important than looking for the dead.

IMO. Whites has broken the treaties and the natives should demand a new one that recognizes the atrocities of the colonial thieves, whose vile racist attitudes that many whites still hold.
