It deeply, deeply failed. Residential schools were an atrocity. I'd show you articles about them but I'm afraid that no matter what I show you, you'll consider it wrong for some reason, so I ask to try to convince yourself that Canada's residential schools were overall awful.
- gdhbcc 8y agoI'm not making any value judgement, I'm just asking whether or not there is data to state that they didn't accomplish their goals (with some failures along the way)?
- jordigh 8y agoMake a good faith attempt to convince yourself that residential schools were an utter failure (e.g. go read up about them in the book of your choice). I am just afraid that I may attempt to do the work myself and be met with someone who has already made up their mind in bad faith and I'd be wasting my time. If you did make an effort and did indeed find positive effects of residential schools, I'd be more willing to discuss the merits you found.
