- Nope, as in there was horrible shit happening for many decades after that, into the 70s at least. - zork Oct 6, 13:11 7
  - Bery was certainly comparing it to modern school systems. -- nm - Ender Oct 6, 13:13 6
    - "Can you imagine?" isn't really a comparison. And the mortality rates in these schools were a lot higher than the Canadian average for school children - Roger More Oct 6, 13:19 2
      - Which is also an apples and oranges comparison, given that average school children don't go to residential schools. - Ender Oct 6, 13:22 1
        
        The point we are trying to get across is that we are talking about a population that has been disadvantaged for a long period of time. - Roger More Oct 6, 13:27
    - I was saying it would be unconscionable in a modern school system. - Beryllium Oct 6, 13:16
    - so reply to him. -- nm - zork Oct 6, 13:14 1
      - I did, and then you kept replying to me. -- nm - Ender Oct 6, 13:20
