“In order to educate the children properly, we must separate them from their families. Some people may say that this is hard, but if we want to civilize them we must do that.”-Hector Langevin, Public Works Minister of Canada, 1883
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada has determined that the government, and Christians, of Canada are evil. This is based on at least 150,000 cases of native American children who were forcibly separated from their parents!
The TRC issued two reports, one called They Came for the Children: Canada, Aboriginal Peoples, and Residential Schools. The other is called Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Interim Report.
“The truth about the Residential School system will cause many Canadians to see their country differently.”-Murray Sinclair, TRC
From the late 19th Century up until the 1970s, the Canadian government forced native American children to live in boarding schools, many never to see their parents again. This was part of a plan to make native Americans (indigenous people of North and South American continents) more like “Canadians”!
The program was run mainly by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Church of Canada, the United Church of Canada, but included the Presbyterian, Congregationalist and Methodist churches!!!
Instead of making natives civilized Christian Canadians, the program actually made the children victims of torture and sex crimes!!!
To top that, the investigation revealed that very little “education” took place! Native Americans in Canada are suffering from intense poverty because of Canada’s so called “Christian” policies towards them!
