That's not representative of how we're all taught in Canada. Where I'm from, we're taught in school exactly how awful residential schools were, the people responsible for it, and the lasting damage it has caused our Indigenous people. It's not something that's brushed aside like it wasn't an atrocity, and many members of our community are still affected by it.
