The fish in the river were full of poison, and the people from Grassy Narrows, who relied on the fish as a staple in their diet, were full of it, too. >Once ingested, mercury never goes away. It “bioaccumulates,” meaning it passes from one generation to the next, from mother to child, through the placenta. And so on.... This sort of thing is covered in University-level courses in Canadian History. But nevermind that - it's just "misinformation" that I have invented "out of whole cloth." Native schools and residencies were built downstream rivers from factories that produced toxic chemicals and dumped them into said rivers. Again, it's not new knowledge, it's just labeled as misinformation because people are ignorant and they would rather not know. This subject is directly covered in the aforementioned coursework. How gullible you want to be is a choice you have to make.

Yes, the mercury dumping by a corporation is the whole cloth from which you wove your story about the government running around deliberately poisoning the little native children. By twisting culpability, you created misinformation. Just as you do with the Kamloops story: debunked by the Chief for Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc, it is not a mass grave and bodies have not been found; the media invented the narrative you now provide as “proof.” You are abusing history, making claims and stories that are loosely based on history but are not actually real history. you, my friend, are the gullible one. https://mobile.twitter.com/AngelaSterritt/status/1400876691824594946 https://mobile.twitter.com/AngelaSterritt/status/14008766918...
