Genocide is legally defined as any of the following acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group: killing members of the group, causing serious bodily or mental harm, deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about physical destruction, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children to another group. This definition is established by the 1948 United Nations Genocide Convention.
Do you deny any of these acts occurred upon the indigenous people of these territories now named Canada by European settlers and their descendants?
are first nations looking after their own children today or do that still allow and encourage another government to run the foster child system for their children?
“Indigenous people fought each other and did bad things, therefore committing a genocide is OK.”
What a lovely & compelling argument.
Also, sorry for assuming you’d be able to recognize that “Canadian” included the history of British and French colonists in what became Canada.

@nutpantz Quite the long rant just to dodge my question.
But not surprised since you’ve been behaving like a bad faith actor throughout this thread.
Stay on point next time.

@nutpantz You provide no facts except your loaded feelings.
I provided the UN definition of genocide.
Are you denying that native children were forcibly transferred to another group?

Thus why the Jordan principle is under fire.
I guess your stuck up on who pays, sucks for you but the Canadian government will need to pony up some money or else…
