I don’t understand Mr. Scheer. You will hold LPC accountable for holding you & your supporters accountable?

The far right are not allies to indigenous peoples. In fact, the long history of western Canadian indigenous persecution rests on your shoulders.
It was Churches and the people who ran them, in partnership with complicit Governments who tried to erase us. You called our beliefs and values heathen and primitive. You took our children and forced them to adopt your religion, your words and your ways.
You banished my FN cousins to reserves and then almost starved them from neglect and malice.

You and the people you represent are the greatest danger to people like me.

Perhaps Mr. Cooper can enlighten us indigenous people with more readings from the terrorist manifesto.
You aren’t fooling anyone.

How many young men and women have been erased from history because of your policies?

How many communities have been destroyed by the systemic hatred you foment among your supporters.

And you’re trying to do it again.
Much like the African American communities in the US, indigenous communities are aware of our past and can never forget the injustices you and your far right ideologues have inflicted on us for generations.
The vast majority of mainstream Canadians are indifferent to indigenous peoples.

But, the far right are precisely who seek to annihilate us. It’s always been the far right.

I’m from Alberta. I’ve lived among you my entire life.
It was your ideology that led to eugenics sterilizing many of our women who you considered subhuman and biologically inferior. It was you who developed the 60’s scoop policies, a program similar in intent to the current atrocities in concentration camps at the South US border.
It’s you who celebrated the exoneration of a man who shot and killed a young indigenous male on his property.

It is your ideology that supports police dropping indigenous men and women far from home in subzero temperatures to freeze to death.
It’s your ideology that enables crimes against indigenous women to go uninvestigated and ignored until a white community protests, like Robert Picton.

And it’s your party who stated relatively recently & quite emphatically that indigenous women’s issues weren’t on your radar.
Focussing in the victim’s and their families in this report is not what Prime Minister Trudeau needs to be held accountable for addressing.

We the people of this nation, indigenous and non-Aboriginal alike, we need to hold you and your ideology accountable.
You’re the people who have taken our land, plundered our resources, segregated our communities, abused and discarded our women and children, and now want credit for sharing tidbits of the bounty of natural resources you desire to reap.
You’re the party who removed environmental protections to more easily develop fossil fuels. Your party consistently refuses to acknowledge and respect Treaty Rights and land claims of FN.

Your party offers the equivalent of beads in payouts to gain compliance for pipelines.
You’re bullies, authoritarians and religious dogmatic extremists.

An entire nation has been abused and brow beat by your ideology and many just looked away when you attack indigenous peoples, thankful it wasn’t them being targeted.
Those that enabled your reign of terror have their own consciences to face. But you are the harbinger of death, destruction and annihilation of indigenous peoples of Canada.

You always have been.

We will not forget.
Here is an example of how the far right implements systematic genocide. While this example is targeted at African Americans, the very same “science” was used in 1920’s -30’s to justify eugenics.



You who promote these spurious lies are the problem.
Here’s another example. Targeted at children. Vulnerable, dependent children.

That’s who these people are. They target the rights of children.

Endangering children’s lives to maintain dominance.
