Daniel, I am on the Canadian side, where the reality is very different. Have you heard of the Residential Schools narrative that was cooked-up by the WOKE? Used as an excuse to burn or vandalize 112 Christian churches in Canada so far? And we never stop paying so-called reparations. While drug abuse, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and family violence just keep multiplying on the reserves. Though it is never their fault, apparently.
Our Governor General is indigenous from an Arctic community. Is she into stewardship of the earth, therefore? No way....she spends on a luxury urban lifestyle as if the money will never dry up. Many indigenous use gas-powered chainsaws to clear their lands. So they can build casinos. And have private pilots fly in groceries that are 90% junk food. Eat the ancestral way? Are you kidding?
Glad if the American tribes are doing better. What you understand about some indigenous history rarely applies north of the 49th.
A. I'm not sure how many other US tribes have adopted the attitude of reconciliation of the Chickasaw, hopefully many.
I know just a smidgen about the residential schools in CDN but my impression is that they were quite similar in both countries.
Are you saying that CDN residential schools narrative is hoax "cooked-up by the Woke". I'd love to hear more about that! I don't think the history of these schools requires much cooking.
If 112 churches were burned or seriously vandalized (vs graffiti and other minor damage), that is certainly is a loss & a sign that the hatchet hasn't been buried in those locales. That said, since many residential schools were run by churches & by badly misguided "Christians" I can understand their anger. That said, I do not justify burning down churches. May God have mercy and bring reconciliation!
I think it's time to learn the facts here, Daniel. Actually, if you go back a few years before Troodo's reign there were 400 church burnings/vandalizings in all.
"Blacklocks reports that since 2010, when the Truth and Reconciliation (TRC) commissioners began making the claim in interviews and in interim reports that thousands of indigenous children had died at residential schools under suspicious circumstances, more than 400 Christian churches have burned in Canada.
Those allegations were false, and based on a conspiracy theory.
But, the church burnings increased significantly after the May 27, 2021 Kamloops announcement ramped up that claim to an actual accusation by the Tk’emlups Indian band that 215 children had died under sinister circumstances, and were buried by priests in secrecy on the school grounds — “with the forced help of children, as young as six”.
Where did that Tk’emlups story come from? Most importantly, why would anyone believe such obvious nonsense?
The conspiracy theory that launched the entire missing children claim was largely created out of whole cloth by a defrocked United Church minister, named Kevin Annett."

This insanity has been very similar to the Satanic Panic of the 80s/90s in the US. Same phenomenon. Or the Thomas Quick affair in Sweden. These situations all fit a behavioural pattern.
This is somewhat like the damage and burnings of Jewish properties in 1930s Germany, on the basis of delusional fantasies (mind-viruses) that were purposely spread.
Daniel, with all due respect, I don't think you understand the situation in Canada. Quite different from the US. Including the residential schools issues. whose history was reality-managed so as to fit a WOKE/Marxist narrative. You didn't know that? You should read some accurate literature on this.
I do not agree that those Christians who ran the various schools were all badly misguided . Where do you get that idea? Compared to who?
You seem to be operating on various fashionable myths here. Instead of the actual facts.
Bring reconciliation? It is not some kind of war. What they need is a sense of self-agency. To wean themselves from the welfare system. Not so different in that way from communities in American ghettoes.
