Carving the Whitewash in Stone: A Holocaust-Denying Museum for Canada By Kevin D. Annett

Well, how quaint, and so typically Canadian. It seems we're to have an "Indian residential schools museum" now, thanks to the same people who have been whitewashing the whole thing for years.

Canada's stage managed "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" (TRC) -- those guys who can hear survivors' testimonies, but only record them if they don't name names or mention murders -- announced yesterday that they're going to hold another glitzy event in Vancouver in March to The TRC "shall not hold formal hearings or conduct a legal process ... shall not possess subpoena powers ... shall not name names or record the names of alleged wrongdoers ... (and) shall make no findings regarding the misconduct of any person or regarding the possible criminal or civil liability of any person or organization." (TRC Mandate, Section Two, (b) to (h), www.trc.ca )

How, then, will a TRC-sponsored "residential schools Museum" do anything more than perpetuate such a clear and obvious cover-up? I can imagine the Museum displays of such a sanitized view of Canadian history: the sort of general, bland commentary you can find in our high school history books which describe the "peaceful re-settlement" of Indians onto reserves, or depict residential schools as "an attempt to bring education to the Indians." Isn't it time we stopped this self-deceiving and criminal nonsense and came clean about ourselves, Canada?
