RE: Ottawa pressured to examine how historical figures
are celebrated.
This is what forty years of revisionist history gets you: a
collection of ignoramuses who don’t understand why Sir John A. Macdonald would
be memorialized in Canada.
A sign of emotional maturity is the ability to make complex
moral judgements, to be able the weigh the bad with the good and arrive at a
reasonable conclusion.
Thus we get this wave of demands to pull down the memorials
to those who built this country. These demands come from emotional
children who fail to weigh the bad with the good, and who are not even aware of
the good because of a defective education. These people cannot even look
at the country around them and wonder how all the good around them got started.
The Elementary School Teachers Federation proved themselves
to be both emotional children and defective in their knowledge of history,
which raises the question of why these people are allowed in front of
classrooms of impressionable children. What are they teaching them?
And you wonder why there is a need for competition in the education sphere.
And for all the evils visited upon the Indigenous by wicked
Europeans, the fact remains that Canadian Indigenous are much more numerous,
far better off, and infinitely more educated than they were in 1880.
It is a waste of time trying to reason with children who
know nothing. The adults in this country need to remain firm in the face
of this coming wave of emotional outburst.
