Talk:Canadian Indian residential school system

1948 is wrong date for end of compulsory attendance at residential schools
Compulsory attendance did not end in 1948 (see Indian Act); Haig-Brown reference cited doesn't say it did, either. Deleted. 2001:569:FD3B:1600:C578:48CE:B32A:95CF (talk) 21:18, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * What do you believe to be the correct date, and based on what sources? Nikkimaria (talk) 02:19, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Literally thousands of sources for the date Moxy -Maple Leaf (Pantone).svg 02:40, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Then feel free to provide a source with the correction instead of merely asserting that it exists somewhere out in the ether when you’re making the claim to its existence and claiming that there is an error present here. The burden is on you to provide a source for the claim. Your Friend From 1914 (talk) 10:26, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

 * There does seem to be a whiff of melodrama around some of the wording. However, it's very minimal and doesn't justify your mass deletions of sourced material. -- ₪   MIESIANIACAL  15:06, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * That material is not sourced, it's alleged. Part of the TRCs mandate was to record the allegations and words of indigenous people affected without ANY JUDGEMENT regarding the truth or accuracy of those statements. 2604:3D09:D78:1000:8636:CAF2:B9D:31C7 (talk) 15:31, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Why are you at the noticeboard all the time instead of talk pages. Are taking the time to see if other sources verify this information? It seems overly complicated all the time. Moxy 🍁 02:39, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
