The Chilcotin War and the rewriting of history
The Justin Trudeau government, assisted by all opposition parties, last week completed a masterful rewriting of history.
The prime minister joined speakers for the Conservatives, NDP, Greens and even the Bloc in apologizing for the execution of six murderers who were hanged 154 years ago, after which he hugged representatives of the Tsilhqot’in Nation on the floor of the House.
But let’s also recognizee that they committed great wrongs. They killed a lot of innocent people.
Let’s have apologies for that — then we can have a group hug.
