Unit 3: The Canadian Tale (Tle G1_gr1)
(At the follwing of what we did last time.)
Eventually,
the Canadian government acknowledged the cultural genocide they committed
through the Residential schools. In fact, in the House of Commons and the presence of other
Representatives of the government, the Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, gave an
apology speech to make amends. As a result, the
government created the Truth and Reconciliation Commission to better assimilate
the Indigenous people in the Canadian society. The Aboriginal community was
very moved by these apologies and happy to
finally be legitimized regarding all what they had to go through/endure.
To
conclude, even though the Canadian government is trying to do
better for the Aboriginal community, there are still conflicts between these
peoples and the rest of Canada. In fact, their
rights and lands are still not completely respected nowadays.
