CMV: cancelling Canada day because of the recent residential school mass unmarked graves is dumb

I’ll start by saying there should never be a grave at a school. Period. The unmarked mass graves discovered in Canada is undoubtedly horrible (understatement). 
However, I don’t think cancelling Canada day is the proper way to reconcile things. 

Canada day is a day to celebrate the beauty of the country we live in. Regardless of what your ethnicity is or how long you’ve lived in Canada, we should all be able to celebrate this beautiful country we live in. 

Canada day isn’t to celebrate the Catholic Church or the government, who needs to be held responsible for these atrocities. It’s to admire the beauty of this country we can all call home. Every country has its dark history to each extent. Does that mean everyone should be ashamed of where they live?

I disagree with your idea of what Canada Day represents. 

After all, it was originally called “Dominion Day,” and it marks the confederation of Canada. Its history is rooted in the celebration of *white Canadians’ autonomy*, not all Canadians. 

There was a huge conservative out roar in the 1980s when Dominion Day became Canada Day; it was painted as an obfuscation of Canadian “culture” and history.

I point all this out to say that your notion of Canada Day, as some universal day of celebration for all Canadians, isn’t really *historical*. The date, and the holiday itself, is inseparable from the colonial past of canada, and so it’s understandable why caution may be advised in the celebration of it, in the midst of ongoing and past crimes against the indigenous people who inhabited the land long before white Canadians came.
