FOREWORD
Jasper Joseph is a sixty-four-year-old native man from Port Hardy, British Columbia. His eyes still fill with tears when he remembers his cousins who were killed with lethal injections by staff at the Nanaimo Indian Hospital in 1944.
I was just eight, and they'd shipped us down from the Anglican residential school in Alert Bay to the Nanaimo Indian Hospital, the one run by the United Church. They kept me isolated in a tiny room there for more than three years, like I was a lab rat, feeding me these pills, giving me shots that made me sick. Two of my cousins made a big fuss, screaming and fighting back all the time, so the nurses gave them shots, and they both died right away. It was done to silence them. (November 10, 2000)
Unlike post-war Germans, Canadians have yet to acknowledge, let alone repent from, the genocide that we inflicted on millions of conquered people: the aboriginal men, women and children who were deliberately exterminated by our racially supremacist churches and state.

When I learned about this I felt sick for a very long time and still do. This history is horrible!
obscene. It is our history but and if it was simply ancient history it might not
be so upsetting. The fact that it is still being hidden, people are still
destroying files, denying what happened and not taking responsibility for the
incredible destruction unleashed on these innocent people, is uspeakable! I
mean that literally. I cannot find the words to describe my sense of injustice!
Questions pour out of my mind. How can we think we can heal the planet if
we don't acknowledge this genocide in our own country? How can we talk
peace in other nations if we allow our own people to live in this sick shadow?
How can we stand by and allow today's bureaucrats and politicians to bury
this ugliness? How can we allow our children to think the sterotypical b.s.
about our native peoples? And they do, because the propaganda is rampant
with it.
More questions....as I consider the larger picture. Those who were the
keepers of the land, the protectors of the wildlife, those who respected
Mother Earth and took only what they needed and gave back to the land,
those gentle people who were willing to share....were not only sacrificed, and
even killed, prevented from reproducing, and even today as one Native elder
tried to stand for the land over the money making of the Olympics, was also
sacrificed by the sytem?! What does this say? I can't absorb this without
incredible sorrow and anger.
What the hell were they injecting these kids with? As this story details so
much of a grand plan, I think Canadians are owed answers. It is we the 'white'
man so to speak who must demand to know what was done, not for us,
because as we know now, nothing in this scheme was done for us. It is being
done to us now, to them yesterday and to who tomorrow?
It makes sense in a sick kind of way though. If they had not destroyed the
strength of the numbers of native peoples, and their traditions and culture, it
might have spread to the settlers. If the settlers had have adopted the native
way, we could be living in peace and harmony with the planet, it might have
spread throughout North America and invaded Europe? Who knows the ends
of the earth might have adopted the respectful traditions which are not
contradictory to anything Christian(real Christian that is), who knows ....and
that is apparently what they feared!!!
We need answers. Compensation will never be enough. It must be declared
clearly, what happened and why, who is responsible for this cover up today.
We need to know. If we as 'the human race' are ever going to heal and begin
to create peace, we need to know what is going on, we need to stop it from
continuing and begin to heal. Sorry for the length, but I'm truly disgusted, I've
read some of this before, but nothing to this degree! You are right Chris this
is what should be taught, but before it can be fully taught, it needs to be fully
exposed. The truth is once again so unpopular!

I have been aware of Kevin Arrnet (sp?) for some time now and as always I have an agenda to fill.
Vive has carried many a story about First Nations peoples and the responses are always garenteed to bring out the racists.
It in my hope those very same people read and begin to understand SOME of the reasons Aboriginal peoples behave as they do.

Interesting, I had not thought of it in that way before, but yes it makes more "sense" from that point of view. It also makes "sense" that those who were more easily broken would be allowed to live. That's how farmers without thinking much about it, create docile and useful animals through generations of a careful selection of desirable traits.
Keep in mind, many people would rather not know about this "stuff" because it directly conflicts with deeply held beliefs about what Canada is all about. Many people still hold on to old colonialism memes that have survived for centuries, and allowed for a blind eye to be turned on acts of brutality for the "good of the colony". The fact that there are still aboriginals left alive that have not been fully broken means that there's still work left to do in that department, and as we can see the colony is hard at work doing the same old things that made it into what it is today.
