A few examples of social justice in Canada
(3-4 sentences)

The big ones have to do with our treatment of Canada’s First Nations. Somebody got it into their head a hundred or so years ago that the best way to deal with our native population was to assimilate them into society. Children were forcibly removed from their homes and placed in residential schools.

Unfortunately, many of the people running those schools were sociopathic, and there was rampant physical abuse of the students at those schools.

That history of abuse combined with a complete absence of meaningful education, job training, or really any kind of support from the Federal Government that parted them from their land led to several generations of rampant alcoholism and drug abuse all across the country. That in turn has led to First Nations people being substantially over-represented in the court system and prison population.

It is somewhat ironic that, for a country which generally is pretty welcoming to immigrants, we save our racist tendencies for the people who were here before all the rest of us.

There is a great deal that needs to be done to right the wrongs of the past. Some of it is pretty basic, like getting clean drinking water and health care services to reservations all across the country.
