There is no continuity between tribes from the past and the criminal-gangs LARPing as Red Indians today.

"Oral history" is an oxymoron. The "indigenous" have no history until after their dirty arses were discovered by Cabot, Columbus, etc.

On another note, all you scholarly types & that would include I would hope teachers should do some research into ALL the tribes that existed pre 1600,s., oh my goodness, do you see how many tribes were killed in the genocide by the interlopers that crossed the US border into Canada. Good lord, do you see the thousands killed and "shock and awe" that was not caused by us "colonials" was it, my oh my, can we say "Indian genocide" and pray tell where is the reconciliation with this?

I learnt this while sitting in a grade six class in Ottawa, so that begs the question as to why this is not taught in classes today. Please ask yourself why today do teachers harp on diversity and strength, why do they persist in teaching gender ideology that goes against the very principles of Christian lessons as described in the King James Version of the bible and not teach the fundamentals of our own heritage? Is Muslim values Canadian values, as described by our tax dodging, lying, greedy self self-serving Prime Minister?

Has the world gone nuts ?
