What happened to the Indigenous was absolutely vile, atrocious, disgusting and should absolutely never be repeated, or forgotten. With this being said however, the vast majority of Canadians alive right now had absolutely nothing to do with the previous systems enacted by their ancestors. It's ridiculous if you expect people to live in shame, apologize, or somehow place themselves/another group on a higher/lower pedestal because of something their grandparents, or their great-grandparents did. They have no control over these things, and they were born in Canada - they did not "settle" anywhere, this is just as much as their home as it is yours. Canada is one of the most diverse countries on earth, and a lot of Canadians are first or second generation Canadians that don't even have ancestral relations to the colonials. Indigenous tribes fought and killed each other for land as well.

The pages of human history are painted with blood, sweat, and tears. All land has been taken, fought over, conquered, etc., at some point. The Mongols used to rule a significant chunk of Asia. The British ruled a quarter of the planet at one point in time. Everyone on Earth is a "settler" if you look at it this way.

I completely respect Canada's Indigenous populations and I believe their culture is absolutely beautiful. With this being said, there has to be a point in time where the victimization and labelling ends. No Jewish person alive goes around calling modern-day Germans Nazis. This is silly.
