Criminalizing Denial of Residential Schools | Winnipeg News
Description
Manitoba educators are rallying behind a bold new push to criminalize denial of residential school harms, launching a closing e-petition to force federal law reform. Inspired by Winnipeg MP Leah Gazan’s Bill C-254, which seeks to penalize hate speech that downplays or distorts the truth, the movement argues that survivor safety and historical accountability can’t wait. While some see legal action as essential, others urge consultation over criminalization — but all agree: reconciliation demands we stop pretending the past didn’t happen.
