#AdvocacyCABroadbentInstitutePressProgressMitchellThompson "In the interview, Flanagan acknowledged residential schools 'had drawbacks,' but he also echoed statements he has made previously defending the utility of residential schools as a 'pragmatic response to the realities of trying to educate a widely-distributed population': 'I haven't heard anyone say what would be a practical alternative to Residential Schools. Would you say no school at all? If we hadn't set up any schools Canada would be condemned today for leaving this population in ignorance.' Regarding the indisputable evidence of sexual and physical abuse at residential schools, Flanagan suggested the news has not taken a balanced approach - something he blames on 'wokeism.' 'I think any honest approach would try to draw the balance,' Flanagan told True North. 'What has happened is people with strong ideological convictions, what today is often called 'wokeism', have taken the bad reports and woven them into their narrative while discounting the numerous good reports.' Flanagan elaborated on his thoughts: 'The historical record is mixed as it is for all human institutions. You know, if I can draw a comparison for a second, if you look at the literature surrounding boarding schools in England at the time which were used for the children of elite parents, many students love their schools. Others report horrifying reports of physical and sexual abuse at these schools. So, for residential schools in Canada, you'll also find a mixed set of reports. ' In a statement to PressProgress, Flanagan said he 'absolutely' stands behind his statement that news reports about the discovery of unmarked graves at residential schools is 'fake news.' Asked whether he disputes the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's findings that children died as a result of abuse in residential schools, Flanagan said: 'I dispute this as a generalization.'" https://pressprogress.ca/fraser-institute-fellow-tom-flanagan-news-stories-about-residential-school-graves-are-fake-news/ #AdvocacyCAFraserInstitute #OrgCATruthAndReconciliationCommissionOfCanada #ToponymAmericaNorthCanada #AdvocacyCATrueNorthCentreForPublicPolicy #TauntWokeism #LiteralSchoolResidentialBoarding

"Authorities combat vaccine misinformation Health officials believe they will not be able to persuade about 10 percent of the population to get a Covid-19 vaccine. The research showed those most likely to say no would be female, have a lower household income, fewer education qualifications or be a parent with a child at home. Safety and concerns about side effects were the key reasons for vaccine hesitancy. Officials believed a lot of that could be attributed to the disinformation swirling on social media - especially for Māori and Pasifika communities." #PhenomnMisinformation #PhenomnVirusCOVID19 #TechICTSocialMedia #IdentityPasifikaNewZealander
