Canada, have you forgotten Dudley George? Twenty years ago, Dudley George died protesting Canada’s theft of his First Nations land during the Second World War. The unarmed First Nations man was shot dead by the police in 1995 at Ipperwash Provincial Park near Lake Huron. Years later, a provincial public inquiry took place, wherein former Ontario chief justice Sidney B. Linden concluded that the federal government was the true villain in this tragedy. Twenty years after George’s death, Canada still hasn’t given that land back or paid for what they ruined.
