Will Trudeau Apologize To Leftists ?
« on: November 30, 2017, 05:49:36 am »
Will Justin Trudeau offer settlements and apologizes to victims, descendants and families (including me) of people who were persecuted by the Canadian government for their political beliefs ?

This includes people whose legal labour activities resulted in their death, with their tombstones marked 'Killed by the RCMP', who were imprisoned for up to five years for being Communists, who were killed in riots instigated by the RCMP, who were framed by the RCMP.

When ?

So you think by apologizing for actual wrongs...I don't actually quite know what you think, to be honest.

I'm saying that eventually Justin's apology of the week will become stale.

Do you expect them to offer settlements and apologies to Canadian Nazis and their descendants and families who were persecuted by the Canadian government?

Why should anything be done? I'm sure there have been enough people screwed over by governments since Confederation that they can keep the apologies going for at least two terms.

Because the people affected were wronged, and we are a society that makes right by our wrongs?

Where does it end and what is your motive, to make yourself feel better?

Then it will never end. You can't change what happened with an apology, you can only do better tomorrow.

You can also attempt to make up for the wrong.

How do you know they were wronged? Communists were and remain the enemies of freedom and democracy, responsible for slaughter, murder and cruelty across the globe. They're as bad as the Nazis.

And in case you thought Communists got any nicer in the last twenty years - think again.

You realize there was a MASSIVE lawsuit against the government and this was part of the settlement, right?

You’re kidding right? The harm was documented.
