This was the BC Cons health critic - this is who they're trying to elect to lead on critical files like health - don't get sick, get vaccinated. Outrageous TBH
I fully support Second Sons Canada asking “Got Bones?”
Like him or not, Jeremy MacKenzie’s response to the backlash is worth your time.
You would never know from the state media that Jeremy has serious support among Indigenous people who recognise, as he does, the lies and the debilitating impact of perpetual victimhood propaganda. Indigenous people have every right to reject the politicians and professional spokespeople who presume to speak for them.
I back Second Sons’ demand for evidence, for bones.
If Canadians are being asked to accept specific claims about mass graves filled with murdered children, we are entitled to ask for credible, corroborated forensic evidence - and also where the $12 million went that was supposed to be used to find the bones, and what it actually accomplished.
Calling the question hateful does nothing to answer it. Neither does demanding that the many people asking the question - not just @SecondSonsCA - be silenced.
Something Deeply Rotten
That demand for accountability reaches beyond the search for bones. There is something deeply rotten about a political culture that treats Indigenous people as perpetual victims while defending arrangements that restrict their independence and their ability to build a better life. The Indian Act itself strikes me as a mixture of slavery and communism dressed up in the language of protection.
The original policy treated Indigenous peoples as children who required government guardianship until they could be assimilated. That guardianship wasn’t intended to last forever. Yet 150 years later, the government is still holding their hands and controlling the ground beneath their feet. Temporary guardianship has hardened into a permanent system of dependence.
The Indian Act destroys individual agency and incentives to personally work, and to make a better life for oneself and family. Why shouldn’t Indigenous individuals have the choice of owning the land beneath their homes outright?
Under the Indian Act’s reserve-land system, the Crown holds title, and the statutory process for allotting individual possession requires band-council and ministerial approval. People can own houses on reserves while still being denied ordinary private ownership of the land beneath them.
Land is the big deal. Owning it gives a person an asset against which to borrow, build a business and take responsibility for their own success or failure. The nicest house or doublewide on rented land still leaves you without ownership of the ground it sits on. You cannot use land you do not own as collateral to finance a business.
Yes, there are government-backed loans and special programs. That means going back to the government for another helping hand because its own rules obstruct the ordinary use of reserve property as collateral. The government creates the dependency, then presents itself as the indispensable provider.
Indigenous adults deserve the freedom to make their own decisions and bear responsibility for them.
Why should family connections or a hereditary title determine who gets power and prosperity in Indigenous communities while ordinary people despair? Indigenous individuals should be free to challenge their own leaders, demand financial accountability and pursue a better life without being treated as disloyal to their people.
Consider drinking water. Federal records account for more than $10 billion in water and wastewater spending and investment since 1995, even without a complete accounting of every year and program. Yet Ottawa’s September 2026 figures still show 38 long-term drinking-water advisories in 36 communities.
Neskantaga’s boil-water advisory dates to February 1995. Children born when it began are now adults in their thirties, and the government still lists the date for lifting it as “to be determined.” How many more speeches about reconciliation are those families supposed to endure while waiting for safe water?
Meanwhile, media and government continue promoting claims of bodies found and mass graves, along with stories of midnight murders and demands for national shame. We are expected to accept the claims, confess the sins of our ancestors and participate in public shaming rituals of inherited guilt.
My children and grandchildren owe nobody an apology for the colour of their skin. To anyone who expects them to bow their heads in racial shame: fuck you.
@JeremyMacKenzie appeals for solidarity between First Nations and other Canadians matters because we have a shared interest in challenging the people who benefit from keeping us divided. Respect includes telling each other the truth and expecting evidence from those making serious claims.
Indigenous Industrial Complex
“Got Bones?” challenges the outrageous false claims of mass graves and midnight murders of children, and the entire Indigenous Industrial Complex. It challenges a system that strips people of independence and conditions them to seek permission for their own lives while claiming to empower them.
I’m posting the video and full transcript because I support the message. Give Jeremy a hearing, including the part that the media outrage conveniently obscures: his commitment to following the truth wherever it leads.
As Jeremy puts it, “The truth does not fear investigation.”
