Denying The Canadian Holocaust

I [the author, not me] read Samuel Wedge, and it cuts extremely close to the history that Kevin Annett has put forth over the years. It is a story of how a United Church minister revealed sordid crimes carried out in Nuu-chah-nulth First Nation territory, in a little corporate logging town situated in the middle of southern Vancouver Island colonially designated Port Alberni. Annett alleges that thousands of First Nations children were beaten, raped, and killed or exposed to diseases with church involvement.

For failing to keep quiet about all this, Annett has suffered greatly. He was delisted as a church minister from the United Church; his wife divorced him and was granted full custody of their two daughters; unemployed, he became penniless; he was dismissed from the doctoral program at University of British Columbia; and scorn was heaped upon him by mass media.

I have not read Samuel Wedge, but I have read Kevin Annett's Hidden No Longer.


If you want to know why there is still racism in Canada and the United States, I suggest you read Kevin's works.


The vehemence of our denials of the Canadian holocaust (and the US ones too) remind me of this scripture:


And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

2 Thessalonians 2:10-13 KJV

People denounce Kevin and call him a fraud. But what Kevin mainly did was publicize the accusations of North America natives. In denouncing him we denounce them, and more or less deny the reality of the holocausts they and their ancestors endured.


If we could understand that, we could also understand why we continue to persecute Muslims and seek to destroy their nations. But we will never understand, because we prefer our strong delusion to the truth.
