I find it interesting how Canada's first prime minister was a lawyer, and the United States' first president was a war general. Kind of sets the tone of the nations, lol.
He was a scam he did not become a lawyer he declared himself a lawyer ...no papers ...he suffered from inbreeding typical for sottish people coming to north america mostly criminal or soldiers and trained public servants
The leader of the Marxists who mainly criticize him was an unfaithful lay about who refused to even visit the workers "championed" and used even his best friends and family without remorse. Says a lot more about the people critiquing him.
History is history. Pointing out what you dont like dont change it! It's best to learn from history not delete it. This is just an intro... theres way more to this man and this Country. People need study more about him if they have questions or disagreements. One act didn't define this man. Hundreds of good ones did. Read the whole story, not just one chapter :)
ONE act? Which one are you referring to? The approval to execute Loius Reil? The start of residential school to brainwash indigenous children? Racist policies towards the French? The bride controversy for railway? Hope they wipe his face off our currency.

No it's just that some people too much time on the internet instead of enjoying real life. If they go to a library or join a club and you will actually find people worth debating instead of reading the comments of incel trolls trying to convince people of something.
You are likely championing child sterilizing schools with the trans agenda, and the horrors we have with our current schools. You aren't one to throw stones.
If not a single aboriginal child had been physically, sexually, or emotionally abused at a residential school, how would we view the residential school system today? In the late 1940s when Canada wanted to cancel the residential school system (which the Americans had done), native leaders petitioned (albeit by a slim majority) the Canadian government to keep them open.
John a. MacDonald one of the most important Men in the creation of Canadian history. Good or Bad he was the strongest leader this country has ever seen.
Of course if you choose to remember him that way you are allowed to. Most all real Canadians are proud of him and very thankful for the great things he did to establish Canada and allow even you the privileges you so dearly enjoy to this day. Your Welcome he would say.

OK I’m not an Indian, I’m only a tax payer. So I find Pierre Trudeau’s statue in Montreal a real offensive assault to my senses, when is that monstrosity coming down?
If his policies lead to a racial or class divide that devastated the lives of a large group of people based solely on the circumstances of their birth (like race, gender etc.) that still have major repercussions today, then sure. I really felt statues should go in museums or private properties (people buy their own), why do we even have public statues in display?
@@DarthAlphaTheGreat I agree... any political statue should go in a museum and not be displayed publicly. If you want to keep the statue as reference to history do it in a museum... not in public. Statues like these are constant reminders of tragedies inflicted on other cultures and have no right to be publicly displayed in the city. Put it in a museum where no one can destroy or vandalize it. It’ll make everyone’s life a lot less chaotic and destructive.
@@DarthAlphaTheGreat He kept John A's school system in place and did nothing to alleviate or dismantle it. Trudeau had over 100 years of history to review to make his decision (or lack thereof). John A recognized at the time that he had to do something to bring the natives into Canada. Flawed or not, his intent was unification and he had no history to go on. He did his best. Trudeau knew the history and results of the policies, yet did nothing. Why is Trudeau not the greater evil then?
@1 Homo Sapiens I hate Canada too... As far Quebec seperating... i think it should be a go. Not only that but all Native land should be expanded and claimed a secondary land. meaning they have their own rules and laws and own trade with the help of the canadian government. this would give more space and more freedom for other countries to expand their land as well as culture. That's why i think native territory should be expanded since they were the original founders of this land but also allowing other countries to settle and build on canadian soil. Quebec doesn't need that entire province... but yeah quebec should seperate.
@@DarthAlphaTheGreat "If his policies lead to a racial or class divide that devastated the lives of a large group of people based solely on the circumstances of their birth (like race, gender etc.) that still have major repercussions today, then sure."

John a. MacDonald was Britain's most valuable asset in establishing the Dominion of Canada. In order to do so, he bent, broke, and manipulated both Imperial & International Statutes and Common Laws. This is the reason there are no records, minutes, nor debates between 1792-1875; which is utterly disturbing, especially for the time period between 1867 -1870. MacDonald was a highly intelligent man, and perhaps the only person with the ability to deal with the "Indian Problem". In order to create a power that he did not legally have, him, Oliver Mowatt, and Judge Boyd orchestrated a test case to establish the precedent that "the rights of the Indians are subject to the mercy and Goodwill of the Crown" essentially the restoration of a tyranical Crown which defies Magna Carta. This was accomplished by applying U.S. Supreme Court Decisions known as the Marshall Trilogy despite the long standing pronouncements of the high courts and the Property and Civil Rights Act which strictly declares only English Laws are to be used. The American Doctrine of Discovery is incompatible with England's Doctrine of Reception. MacDonald's plan created a binding & lasting precedent that continues to magnify the perpetual injustice experienced by the First Nations People within Canada.

“It is readily acknowledged that Indian children lose their natural resistance to illness by habitating so closely in these schools, and that they die at a much higher rate than in their villages. But this alone does not justify a change in the policy of this Department, which is being geared towards the final solution of our Indian Problem." Sir John A.
100 % BIGGOTT...........HIS POLITICAL ACTIONS CAUSED MAJOR HARDSHIPS FOR FIRST NATIONS AND METIS.............HIS NAME WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS A BIGGOTT
Macdonald isnt even close to a hero, he was a genocidal maniac who deserves to have his grave pissed on by the descendants of the native people he intentionally had starved to death and their children sent to residential schools.
How can you not mention the mass sterilization and destruction of kids currently happening in to a far wider number of people in Canada right now? Yes you are biased and it is very shameful.
By today's standards everyone back then was a racist. Your comment is thus pointless. The context of the times is important to understand before you make such judgements. MacDonald for his time was quite progressive.
And he was a white nationalist. “if [the Chinese] came in great numbers and settled on the Pacific coast they might control the vote of that whole Province, and they would send Chinese representative to sit here, who would represent Chinese eccentricities, Chinese immorality, Asiatic principles altogether opposite to our wishes; and, in the even balance of parties, they might enforce those Asiatic principles, those immoralities . . . , the eccentricities which are abhorrent to the Aryan race and Aryan principles, on this House.”
