Well this part of your article is more than just objectionable:
"Reparations of $4.7 billion have already been made in respect of the residential schools attended by approximately 150,000 Indigenous children who, whatever the other consequences, and some of them were undoubtedly reprehensible, were given an education, and in many cases, better opportunities."
If you think the residential schools brought any good, there is nothing more to discuss. What would you feel if someone took your children, or now your grandchildren, and they suffered the same conditions and abuse.
