“Residential School Mass Grave Mania”

The discourse on “mass graves” linked to the Indian Residential School system in Canada has painted a sombre chapter in our history. But as recent excavations suggest, these “mass graves” do not exist, though there are most certainly residential school cemeteries that have been overgrown or otherwise lost to time.

Canada stands at a crossroads, torn between its historical sins and the inability to discuss what actually happened in residential schools, because the truth has been buried under the false narrative of “mass graves.”

When our national media don’t like where a narrative is going — as in anyone assuming Joe Biden is an eager participant in Hunter Biden’s influence-peddling — they repeat a mantra about “no evidence.” Biden’s critics have “no evidence” of a Joe-Hunter corruption connection.

But when they like a narrative — like arrogant white imperialist Catholics in Canada were so hostile to “indigenous peoples” that they committed a genocide — somehow, no evidence is required. The wilder, the better. In 2021, a Native Canadian tribe claimed that “ground-penetrating radar” found 215 bodies near a residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia. Within a week, Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau ordered flags across Canada to be flown at half-staff for all the allegedly murdered children

Canadian public servants are set to attend a course to combat residential school “denialism” despite a recent excavation at an alleged “unmarked graves” site finding no human remains.

On September 29, the Canadian government is offering a session entitled “Addressing Residential School Denialism and Embodying Reconciliation” for all public servants in the country.

In May 2021, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported that the remains of 215 children had been found buried at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School in British Columbia. The Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation band had confirmed the story, they claimed, quoting Chief Rosanne Casimir. “To our knowledge, these missing children are undocumented deaths,” she said. “Some were as young as three years old. We sought out a way to confirm that knowing out of deepest respect and love for those lost children and their families, understanding that Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc is the final resting place of these children.”

In the last week, some international news outlets published claims that Canada has fallen for one of the biggest hoaxes in its history.

“Alleged mass grave of Indigenous children at Catholic schools across Canada contains NO BODIES,” declared Britain’s Daily Mail last Thursday. “No human remains found two years after claims of ‘mass graves’ in Canada,” headlined the New York Post. The American Conservative claimed Canada has perpetrated an “anti-Catholic blood libel.”

Oh, the headlines two years ago were horrific – HORRIFIC.

It was every racist, oppressive, creepy boarding school nightmare scenario come to life, and just one more baseball bat to the reputation of a colonizing, supremacist Roman Catholic Church.

In May 2021, the world was shocked when it was reported ground penetrating radar (GPR) had identified as many as 200 possible grave sites at the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School in B.C. Protests and memorials erupted across Canada. The flag was kept at half mast for over six months while a new national holiday was created to recognize damage caused by residential schools. Dozens of churches were burned, and Pope Francis came to Canada to personally apologize for the schools.

Since then, all further investigation of the Kamloops site appears to have inexplicably halted.

The story of ‘mass graves’ at Canada’s infamous residential schools continues to unravel.

Two years ago, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys revealed what were said to be mass burial sites near or on the grounds of numerous former ‘residential schools’. These schools were set up at the end of the 19th century to educate Inuit and First Nations children, in order to assimilate them into Canadian society. Undoubtedly, many indigenous children were mistreated in residential schools, but mass killings had never been alleged before.
