But there is systemic and horrific racism in this country. I'm sure many of us here were affected by "No Canadian Experience" hiring policies.
Here's the full paragraph where you trimmed how reconciliation is being validated, no buts about it. The theory of conspiracy is that some of them turn out to be true, some others are believed to be true and some others are false. The truth and reconciliation movement in Canada, by stating there is systematic racism in this country, validates that there was a conspiracy to keep indiginous peoples in their place, on reservations and predominantly segregated from the rest of a rapidly industrializing white colonialist society. That conspiracy is now considered to be a theory proven true by that very Commission which is charged with making the future determinations of reconciliation.
Just because a website espouses strong opinions doesn't make it right. As someone much smarter than me recently wrote, "The Truth is Paywalled but the Lies are Free".
Not sure about which website you are talking about here. Who said the truth is paywalled? that would make a world of difference to the content of your reply.
