00:00:40.640 you likely enjoyed the national celebration if you are a normal and sane person canada day or

00:00:47.860 Dominion Day as it should be known, is probably the least controversial and unifying national

00:00:53.180 celebration we have in this country. But still, many among us believe that Canada Day should be

00:00:59.560 cancelled because it honors colonialism and celebrates indigenous erasure. You might have

00:01:05.980 thought that the cancel Canada Day movement was one of those early 2020s far left radical social

00:01:12.260 movements that would have died off by now, especially now that the elbows up crowd have

00:01:17.420 made it acceptable to be patriotic about canada if you're a member of the radical left oh but you

00:01:23.180 would be mistaken about that we're bringing back an old ratio tradition on the show today the team

00:07:26.480 of your personal information all right what do we have here canada day is a colonial holiday 0.77

00:07:31.280 built on the erasure of indigenous peoples and the celebration of a country that committed genocide

00:07:37.520 through residential schools and continues through colonial okay let's just let's just put this into

00:07:43.600 perspective here the only people claiming that canada actually committed a genocide against

00:07:49.120 indigenous peoples were the people that wrote the truth and reconciliation report a long list

00:07:55.440 of canadian historians who are not far-right conservatives have publicly labeled that claim as

00:08:02.000 is false. It should be noted as well that the chief villain of Canadian history to people like

00:08:08.100 this, John A. Macdonald, actually saved thousands of Indigenous lives, countless Indigenous lives.

00:08:15.680 Macdonald's efforts to introduce a smallpox vaccine and make sure that it was taken by

00:08:20.960 as many Indigenous communities as possible in the prairies saved thousands of lives.

00:08:26.560 in the 1880s when McDonald was prime minister he ensured that indigenous Canadians would not starve

00:08:35.080 he introduced famine relief programs that again saved thousands of indigenous lives the chief

00:08:40.520 villain of Canadian history in the eyes of these radicals was courted in the house of commons in

00:08:46.240 1880s saying this public sentiment would not allow and no government would be worthy of their

00:08:51.540 position if they allowed the Indians to starve as long as we have the means to feed them the

00:08:56.040 government adopted the best means for relieving them. We were obliged to find food for them, 0.99

00:09:00.800 making the moral argument that they as a government were obliged to ensure that the

00:09:06.520 indigenous people could live and not starve to death. That's not a genocidal remark. If McDonald

00:09:12.620 really was genocidal, if he really hated indigenous Canadians, why would he have put so much public

00:09:18.240 money into the smallpox vaccine campaign to ensure that these people stayed alive? Why would he have

00:09:24.620 put so much money into famine relief programs to also ensure that indigenous Canadians would 0.95

00:09:29.620 survive. Let's proceed. The fact that denialism of that genocide is still politically viable

00:09:36.640 tells me exactly how reconciled this country actually is. Celebrating it for me would be

00:09:42.220 an act of moral pretense. And on the other side of the coin, disability pride month begins today.

00:09:46.860 The country that wants disabled people to be grateful for scraps is... 0.52

00:09:49.880 We just emerged from Pride Month, which I'm sure was also the special month for several other groups. 0.98

00:09:57.740 But now, July is Disability Pride Month. It just keeps going and going. 0.58

00:10:02.600 People to be grateful for scraps is the same country that won't even formally acknowledge the month dedicated to our existence,

00:10:10.960 our history, our resistance, our diversity, and the complexity that is our beauty and our strength. 0.57

00:10:16.460 Alberta's recognition of this month is ironic as fuck though, considering what they're doing to

00:10:21.520 age recipients and the disabled people that they're pushing into deeper crisis. This country 0.96

00:10:26.440 celebrates itself while actively abandoning the people that it claims to include. Indigenous 1.00

00:10:31.660 people, disabled people, poor people, migrants, refugees. Do you hear that? Canada excludes

00:10:39.000 migrants and refugees? You're telling me for the first time. I could have swore that we were doing 0.98

00:10:44.520 the opposite of excluding those people the very groups whose survival and safety and well-being 0.85

00:10:50.200 depends on this country actually meaning what the fuck it says and just to get us on the same page

00:10:55.880 here me not celebrating isn't cynicism it's not unpatriotic it's moral clarity yes it is 0.83

00:11:01.920 what are you talking about it's like the only day you're allowed to celebrate this country and

00:11:06.800 you're telling people you can't celebrate canada day because the country is racist and genocidal

00:11:11.460 you're saying you're not you're not unpatriotic come on now i think we've had plenty of that

00:11:18.360 tick tock there goodness gracious all right load up another one let's see what we got

00:11:23.780 don't wish me a happy colonization day happy canada day thought i would just wish wish this

00:11:31.520 woman who's not very happy a happy canada day or happy dominion day today is not a happy day

00:11:38.960 for indigenous peoples, because everyone seems to forget what this country was founded upon.

00:11:46.440 Think about the history. Think about the broken promises, the missed opportunity to really be

00:11:54.740 who we are as two separate nations, sovereign nations who signed treaties.

00:12:00.720 and canada did not keep their word they acted in bad faith to take everything from us and

00:12:10.640 still they haven't succeeded so i still have hope that we can create a relationship

00:12:17.540 that is built upon mutual respect dignity honor and go back to those ways so in the eyes of some

00:12:26.640 of these people, there isn't a relationship between the government and indigenous people

00:12:31.360 built on mutual respect. Most Canadians would disagree with that. Most Canadians look at the

00:12:37.280 amount of public funding that goes into indigenous programming in this country to ensure that

00:12:42.180 indigenous Canadians are able to learn their languages and celebrate their culture. It's a

00:12:48.100 lot better than the rest of the world. And I think this country has done plenty for indigenous

00:12:54.020 Canadians today. Plenty. And what's not recognized is what some leaders in the Indigenous community

00:13:00.000 are doing to their own people. Siphoning off money. Corruption. Not investing money into

00:13:06.160 reservations and schooling. Whose fault is that? Is that still the Canadian government? The evil

00:13:14.000 Canadian government's fault? These are just insane. Honestly. They're so miserable. Enjoy 1.00

00:13:21.040 the country we live in all right this one is from an account called decolonial clothing

00:13:26.200 this should be good here we go so what are we celebrating really what is there to celebrate

00:13:32.480 on canada day celebrating and setting off fireworks this amazing country despite all

00:13:38.540 of its problems that we're faced with today it's still an amazing country i can think of

00:13:43.080 a bunch of things to celebrate fireworks at a time when the unmarked graves and the conversation

00:13:50.840 of that had got quieter over the years. Now, why might the Unmarked Graves conversation have

00:13:55.520 gotten quieter over the years? Might it be perhaps that nothing has been uncovered? That nothing was

00:14:01.980 found? Hmm. Maybe that might, that might be one of the reasons. Who knows? The genocide happening

00:14:10.000 in your home, in your country, in your nation. Not true. I love how these people just throw that out

00:14:16.520 there. It's a serious accusation and it's not true. And yet it's one of those things where if

00:14:21.660 you just repeat it enough times, more people will actually believe it. I think that Canada and I

00:14:26.560 know that this is a collective push that Canada is guilty of a genocide. Canada has never been

00:14:33.280 accountable of the genocide that they are guilty for and have committed and still commit war crimes

00:14:39.480 against Indigenous people in their communities for decades. Canada still commits war crimes

00:14:45.520 against indigenous peoples in their communities today. I haven't heard about that. I haven't seen

00:14:51.000 that on the CBC. That's the first place I'd look for reporting on that sort of thing.

00:14:56.520 Wow. I must be living under a rock. And I know that because we face it and we see it every single

00:15:02.280 day. So no, I will not be celebrating Canada Day. I encourage you not to celebrate. And until we can

00:15:08.600 see justice, there is nothing to celebrate. And there is no pride in genocide. Oh, these people,

00:15:14.760 they they must be so miserable really this is a reminder that when we celebrate canada day 1.00

00:15:22.740 we're celebrating the colonization of the land of indigenous people with force this is what 0.96

00:15:30.860 canada day is about it's about colonization and the act of elimination of indigenous people

00:15:35.960 myself being one of them so this isn't 2 000 years ago this is happening today i'm enslaved

00:15:42.080 into white still because white still is holding my records which they stole in the first place

00:15:47.200 it doesn't belong to them enslaved into white steel i'm not even sure if that's what she said

00:15:54.000 or if that's what the caption reads let's listen to that one more time i'm not sure what she's

00:15:59.200 talking about here enslaved into white still because white still is holding my records which

00:16:04.000 they stole in the first place it doesn't belong to them they also eliminated my mother and left 0.68

00:16:08.800 her in a coma for days before she passed away and kidnapped me at birth and placed me and changed 0.94

00:16:16.240 my name and sealed my records so that I would be forced into slavery into the white demographic 0.83

00:16:22.960 oh Canada okay oh my gosh forced into slavery into the white demographic I'm sure she's really 0.60

00:16:35.300 fun at parties um where does that even come from forced into slavery into the white demographic 0.78

00:16:44.300 what can you even say all right the punishment is over i actually thought the cancel canada day

00:16:53.260 movement was eliminated was gone but no they're still out there still trying to make a difference

00:16:58.860 still trying to tell us that no, Canada Day is not allowed. We need to be depressed. We need to

00:17:05.940 hang our heads in shame and apologize for things that actually never happened. All right, everyone,

00:17:12.600 that's going to do it for us this week on the show. A reminder that you can use my code
