I m tired of these vague feel good deflections that are meant to sound good but really sound cocked because the real base thing to say is we stole the land, and we turned it into something far better for indigenous people and for ourselves.

00:00:00.000 We have to come together and realize that Canadian schools have become blatant indoctrination camps.
00:00:05.780 Like last week, a parent from the Toronto District School Board snapped photos at their child's grade 8 winter concert.
00:00:12.680 These kids were displaying slogans from history class.
00:00:16.020 Give back stolen land. It's not your land. Land back.
00:00:20.340 Now, shaming kids for things they didn't do is not education, it is abuse.
00:00:25.020 Can you imagine going to some little German girl and saying,
00:00:29.400 your country has a horrible history. Like, shut up. You know, these institutions desperately need
00:00:35.120 an ideological overhaul. Many on the right say Canada wasn't stolen land, it was built, or,
00:00:40.760 you know, it was conquered. And I'm going to be honest, I'm tired of these vague feel-good
00:00:45.240 deflections that's meant to sound based, but really sounds cocked. Because the real base
00:00:50.600 thing to say is we stole the land and we turned it into something far better for indigenous people 0.95
00:00:55.660 and for ourselves. When Europeans arrived in the early 1500s, most indigenous societies were
00:01:01.720 normatic tribes led by chiefs and elders. Leadership relied on trust. If you lose it,
00:01:07.500 you could be removed, sometimes violently. By the 1600s, justice systems were informal,
00:01:13.320 patriarchal, and had no written laws. Women could not bring claims themselves. A male relative spoke 1.00
00:01:19.240 for them. And who were the judges? The chiefs. And what was the judgment based on? A shared
00:01:24.980 notion of fairness. Punishments were brutal. Whipping, mutilation, executions, by stoning,
00:01:31.020 burning, drowning, stabbing, or hanging. Premarital sexual norms were permissive for women. But
00:01:36.300 fidelity was strictly enforced after marriage, more so for women than men. Intertribal conflict
00:01:42.340 was constant. Captured enemies faced torture and executions. Survivors were often enslaved.
00:01:48.960 European settlers even urged indigenous groups to stop their harsh punishments.
00:01:53.240 Now, eventually, European laws and customs were imposed out of both benevolence and necessity.
00:02:01.120 There is no question that pre-contact indigenous society was barbaric, uncivilized, and violent. 1.00
00:02:07.120 We replaced it, and it was a good thing we did.
00:02:09.780 And this is not a black and white issue.
00:02:11.820 Europe wasn't perfect, although it wasn't that egregious.
00:02:15.040 And early settlers owed their survival to indigenous knowledge, trade, tools, and help.
00:02:20.880 They were essential to making settlement work.
00:02:23.800 I am proud of my ancestors.
00:02:25.440 I am proud of what they built.
00:02:27.260 I am proud of what we are.
00:02:29.200 But these kids are not learning that.
00:02:31.320 They are not learning real history or critical thinking.
00:02:33.940 They are being brainwashed.
00:02:35.740 I did not learn much in public school.
00:02:37.820 Everything worthwhile came from independent reading.
00:02:41.920 All the historical details I shared.
00:02:43.800 Forgotten History by Conrad Black.
00:02:45.980 Educate yourselves with real books
00:02:48.480 Not just for you, but for your country
