The establishment and their media have been enforcing their take on
what is politically correct on the issue of residential schools.
Currently, Senator Lynn Beyak will not submit to their will so they are
going after her.
The establishment narrative - and I exaggerate - is that the program
was all evil. With that version, you have to believe that the thousands
of people involved in the program were also evil, stupid or ignorant.
It is more likely that in 2018 they consider they know better than the
people who were there and had direct knowledge a hundred years ago.
I can point you to a book by Haskell where, on visiting the cabin of
his hunting guide, writes that the children were away at a fine
residential school 50 miles away. Hard to ban that book because it is
out of copywrite.
Also there is a film circulating which traces the activities of the
Hudson Bay Company. In it, a beautiful Inuit woman states the opinion
that she "still thinks" many of the people in the school program were
well intentioned. The words "still thinks" tells me that she has heard
all the propaganda and does not believe that story. BAN THE FILM NOW.
