This was brave of her to do and she was right to do it. We need to adopt her word change permanently. Our home is built on native land
@NorthernInvader I agree. I hear resistance from people saying they were born here, so Canada is their native land. I can see their side too.
@JanMoleski regardless of where one was born we are all uninvited interlopers on native land - land that recent archaeology implies they've been on for between 30K-50K years. Much of what we call Canada - especially in the west, is on unceded territory.
@bluesbaby @JanMoleski White Supremacists / Canadian Nationalists think it is because you know we may pretend to be polite but we just can't tell the truth about our treatment of the First Nations
Well it's happening whether they like it or not; that train has left the station. Besides, you can't have reconciliation without truth.
@bluesbaby @NorthernInvader Just about anything is controversial these days. Even Roald Dahl.
Would love the Indigenous Flag for Canada, if they would let us.
You're right. Everything is a controversy—silly me.
That Dahl story is heated!
@NorthernInvader @JanMoleski
I read that story and honestly don't see why it would be controversial.
I'd go so far as to adopt the Canadian Indigenous Flag as our official flag. I think its beautiful.
