You know Canada implemented a new holiday at the end of September?

I find it odd that Canada is getting crucified for the residential schools and yet the Catholic Church seems to have gotten off scott-free.

Religion will never be touched because people are brain washed. Easier to blame governments than the magic man in the sky who can't give you mone...eerrrr....reparations for your sufferings.

As both a white man & government employee, I support this decision for an extra holiday.

We need a June holiday. Why did the feds make one in September? We already have Labour Day and Thanksgiving within 3 weeks of that.
