Except that isn't even the whole history of these residential schools. It was the government who took the children away. They gave the children to various denominations, not just Catholics, this included Anglicans and other Protestant groups. Not all the schools were bad. There are some prominent native authors who publicly indicated that they had very good experiences in the schools. There were non-native families trying to get their children into some of these schools because some of them had very good reputations. A lot of the children were put into these schools because they were being neglected by their native parents. The reasons for that was because the Canadian government worked very hard to destroy the native communities and the weapon that worked best was inevitably free money. And then they make up the story of un-marked graves, which has been de-bunked by credible academics many times and yet they keep pushing it as if it's truth. For context, the unmarked graves are not based on even 1 body being found. They are based on ground penetrating radar which can identify that there is something there but it can't distinguish a human body from a rock or a tree root. If there were bodies, they would have dug them up by now.

I'm not going to go into more detail than this for the sake of brevity, but residential schools are a political mythos. They have their narrative crafted and they supress any counterpoints. They also use it to attack who they want to attack (primarily the Catholic Church and other religious groups) and conveniently minimize blame from the primary player (the Canadian government). The current Prime Minister's adopted father (Pierre Elliott Trudeau) was the Prime Minister while this program was still going on. Black Face Hitler (current Prime Minister) has never mentioned that while spreading his lies on residential schools (like the mass graves lie which he really promotes). The residential schools were likely not a good thing, but as it stands now, it's difficult to get an accurate picture of what they were given the lies that are being promoted around them and the credible counterpoints that are being supressed.
