Conservative politicians keep trying to justify residential schools…. But in Manitoba, it has meant the resignation of the Minister in charge of the First Nations file, the apology minutes after the next one was selected and Conservative MLAs speaking out against their own leadership.

What a bunch of buffoons.

Minutes after he was sworn in as the province's new minister of Indigenous reconciliation and northern relations Thursday, Alan Lagimodiere said those who ran residential schools believed "they were doing the right thing."

Premier Brian Pallister has also been under fire over the last week for suggesting the colonization of Canada was done with good intentions. Lagimodiere's predecessor, Agassiz MLA Eileen Clarke, resigned from cabinet after Pallister's comments.

People back then probably did think they were doing the right thing, but they weren't. So keep your foot out of your mouth.

Lyle Stewart said in a statement Thursday it was his decision alone to invite his longtime friend and constituent Colin Thatcher.

“In retrospect, this was an error in judgment as his presence was a distraction from a very positive and forward-looking Throne Speech, which included a number of new initiatives to keep Saskatchewan families safe in their communities,” Stewart said in the statement distributed by the director of media relations for executive council.

Thatcher’s ex-wife JoAnn Wilson was found beaten and shot to death in the garage of her Regina home in 1983.
