Canada had sterilization laws up to 1972; and the link I provided was to an article about that class action lawsuit. ;)



I don’t think it’s fair to compare China today with Canada almost 50 years ago.

A lot of things have changed since then. Boston Marathon didn’t have women’s race until 1972.

Our expectations today should be higher.


The last residential school didn't close until the 90s. There are far too many communities without clean drinking water, let alone access to quality education and health care. We still struggle to maintain obligations regarding indigenous land rights and safe guarding indigenous culture.

Our expectations today should be higher.
