The cbc also continues to suggest that 150 thousand indigenous students were forced to attend residential schools which has also been proven to be a lie.

100%. Residential schools were a good thing for the most part. I'm sick of the charade.

I don't trust a thing that the MSM and Liberal politicians say. They are traitors in my mind and will do anything to foment divisiveness. All the evidence I've studied indicates the Residential School mss graves issue is a disgraceful hoax designed to divide us an transfer wealth. It's sickening.

Not a single unmarked grave. Not a single missing or murdered child. Not a single case of abuse in Kamloops. Just one very happy reunion of graduates. Time to switch narratives. These free boarding schools were essential for indigenous children who, in many cases, would otherwise have had no education.

Kamloops was actually started at the request of an Indigenous chief- long before BC joined Canada. The problem was the Indian Act- it prevented any of the schools that already existed acting independently and forced them under federal jurisdiction and funding. The Anglicans and Protestants throughout the Commonwealth didn’t believe indigenous people could be educated. Sadly some didn’t even believe they had a soul. But the Catholics did. Sublimeus Deus (1537), a Papal Bull, that sparked King interest in the ‘reformation’ explicitly protected Indigenous people. This is why there were more Catholic schools. Biggest mistake the Catholic Church made was thinking the Crown was going to fund these schools. They should have shut them down as soon as the Indian Act was in place.

It is one thing not to have one's facts straight and another to outright lie. It is the latter that Barton has done and deserves nothing less than a good firing.

Yeah, keep on lying and we will keep on catching you with the help of real independent journalists. Barton is just an example of an over bloated pig at the trough caused by the Liebrals throwing huge amounts of cash at them

When did it become the job, or right of the liberal paid news media to dictate what issues a federal election should be run on? No media can be nonpartisan when they are funded by the government and not their viewership.

Another bonus of the West leaving the country ... CBC will not be our state broadcaster :-)

Barton, Cochrane helping the Fiberals elect Mark Carney. Central Canada better give their head a shake. Western Canada will not tolerate their "head office center of the Canadian universe" mentality anymore.

Catholics have been educating indigenous youth from the early 1600’s. They merit praise, not libelling as genocidaires.

Great comment.

The basis for Barton's over-the-top attacks on Ms Humphries are clearly evidence of the overt racism. Bartonshould have been canceled long ago when she reached her best before date

I’m waiting for someone to do the following deep dive: what percentage is the 150000 indigenous people that attended residential schools of the total population of Indigenous people over the same period? If we were going to say the amount of deaths they claim are in fact true how does the rate of death 4000(?)/150000 (3%) compare to the rate of death on reserves today? In the general population over the same period? What about the rate of death for Duplessis children? How does the, on reserve, rate of incest, abuse, trafficking children compare to those claims? And how many billions have been claimed and given not just directly but through various campaigns ? There’s a guilt tax that’s going on and the faucet needs to be turned off. I’m so tired of everything ill in this world being blamed on the Catholic Church. Things for children, especially pedophilia and trafficking is WORST when society doesn’t have a moral compass.
