Canadian Aboriginal Genocide

"...It quickly became obvious that business, government and the
church had been working together for more than a century to grab the
lands and resources of west coast native people like the Ahousahts,
using missionary work and the residential schools as a pretext to do
so. It wasn’t about “Christianising the heathen” at all, but about big
money, and getting rid of the indigenous people, who prevented the
European takeover by their continued occupation of the land. "
