Michael Higgins: Truth ignored as teacher fired for saying TB caused residential school deaths

The Truth doesn't matter anymore in Canada. In view of the recent findings re. So-called "Mass Graves" I am almost certain that we won't hear anything about it from our Legacy Media.  There is no room for a teacher to state obvious facts if it isn't in line with the lies that are perpetuated to suit a really sinister agenda Maureen

Six months ago After four decades as a teacher, Jim McMurtryteacher was fired by the Abbotsford District School Board for saying that the deaths in residential schools were largely caused by TB and other diseases, which is backed up by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission report

His comment in response to one of his students is what caused Mr. McMurtry's immediate removal from the school

A student said priests had murdered and tortured the children at the school and then left them to die in the snow. McMurtry pointed out that most children at residential schools died from disease, primarily tuberculosis.

“I wasn’t trying to be inflammatory,” said McMurtry in an interview. “It was one comment. It was not done with callousness.”

It took one complaint, and before the hour was out McMurtry was being frog-marched out of the school.

After four decades as a teacher, Jim McMurtry was fired Tuesday for daring to speak out.

One would hope that this truth would be taught in every school. But that’s not the truth the Abbotsford District School Board cares about
