Over the last several years a new and unsavoury sub-species of Canadian has been named by some of our elites: the “denier”. A detailed example of this charge comes from Stephanie Scott, Executive Director for the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, who recently wrote:
“Sadly…we see increased ugliness from those who deny our truths, experiences and oral histories as reality. Deniers will write their fringe blogs and substacks and leave their foul [emphasis added] comments on social media challenging the documented experiences of Indigenous People, particularly residential school Survivors…They will say: ‘It didn’t happen,’ ‘It wasn’t that bad,’ ‘Some good came out of residential schools,’ or the most repugnant, ‘Children never died in those institutions.’”
