The education system needs a total revamp to teach the real history of Canada’s FIM people and African Canadians. I hope more people will educate themselves as it’s long overdue.
Whoops, that was a strange grammatical error on our part. We doubled up on "we" and "ourselves." Chop "ourselves" out of that and we'll go with that sentence. To be clear, we lean toward thinking she did not set the fire, but we can't be sure.
One question don’t kill me the Brits didn’t even name it Canada until 1791. They abolished slavery in 1834, and we didn’t become independent until 1867, how is this a Canadian story.
Putting things into perspective, the total population of chattel slaves in the colony of New France between 1689 and 1763 totalled 1131, the exact same number as the largest slave owner in U.S. history, Col. Joshua John Ward of 1850’s South Carolina. Isn’t that a coincidence!.?
Not true. Marcel Trudel's research found about 4000 slaves. Of this number about 60% were Indigenous (Panis) and the rest Blacks. I hope you are not saying the Panis were not slaves? Trudel's work I believe only looked at New France and does not take into account the slaves of the British regime in Upper and Lower Canada or those in Nova Scotia. You are correct though that slavery in Canada was never as large and widespread an institution as it was in the Thirteen Colonies and afterward the USA.
Hi @ Good to hear from you. Yes, as noted, I am familiar with the number of slaves thought to have been in the colony. Trudel did some great research. You might be sugar coating the idea of slavery during the French regime. The 4000 number, if I recall correctly, was for the French regime period and was made up of Indigenous and Black slaves. The number of about 10,000 I think might have been the number of slaves over the French and British period. Its been a while since I've read Trudel and some of the other writers on the matter. I don't think you really meant "...mainly about house keeping and brides". We are talking about French owned slaves. These slaves were not being married to their French owners. There are some that carried on household tasks, and others who worked for merchants, on the wharves, on farms, etc. as labourers. Slavery is slavery. To the slave did it really fundamentally make a difference what the nature of their servitude was? Under slavery there were differences as to the level of control, repression and the type of work slaves carried out. The use of slaves in New France and New England was very different from that in the southern colonies. The different economies drove differences in how slaves were used. The matter of slavery among the Indigenous people prior to the French, as well as the fact that some of the Loyalist who immigrated to Canada brought slaves is known but it really was not part of the discussion that focused on the French period. Are you using these facts to legitimize slavery in New France? We have no idea how many slaves the Indigenous groups had over the same period. You might be over simplifying slavery among the Indigenous groups. Also not all prisoners were taken for slave purposes. The Indigenous groups appear to have raided and taken people from other Indigenous groups for a number of reasons - to demonstrate war making prowess, to replace those who had died for various reasons in the tribe - these were not slaves but were adopted into the tribe, to acquire slaves for their own use or to sell as trade items to other indigenous groups or to the French. Others prisoners were taken to be tortured and killed.
Hey @@chadw4969 - Yes some human have been know to eat each other. Hannibal Lecter liked his human with a little Chianti. So are you saying we should ignore history? We are nothing more than all the history that went before us, whether that was yesterday or the many thousand of yesteryears. Marcus Tullius Cicero captured the idea - "To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?" We can attempt to have a better future by understanding the past and not making the same mistakes committed in the past.
@@chadw4969 I don't believe my comments had anything to do with whether slavery as bad. As you point out, that has already been established. My comments were concerning the level (numbers) and the nature of slavery in Canada. Ian Hillmer had stated a number that was too low. He also commented (and since deleted I believe) comments about the nature of slavery in Canada.
@Robert Turpin majority of that poverty is people of colour due to the wage gap that was massively affected by slaves, both from canada and other countries. you want to bring attention to poverty? how about make your own video on it and stop trying to silence history just because you're privileged and don't want to deal with the consequences of your ancestors.
@Robert Turpin It's rich that you're claiming that I don't care because I was trying to shut you up, while you were doing the same thing about the video. Someone brought light to a woman who was tortured and killed by hearsay. Someone then praised them for bringing awareness. Then you ridiculed them and instead brought up an issue; one that's really important to you so of course you'd care about that and not about what this video is actually about. I only show people respect if they respect others. The real humanity is getting offended by discrimination of others. Maybe instead of clicking on a video you knew was about Canadian slavery and complaining, you should actually go and make a change instead of demanding praise for standing up for your own issues.
@Robert Turpin what? why would me being where i am be a problem for me? because i don't agree with silencing other people's issues with your own personal issues?
@Robert Turpin Seems like you're just talking about your own life. You clicked on this video about someone else's struggles, in order to talk about your struggling. That is just selfish.
So is there any historical proofs that she was innocent? I mean that's the undertone of this video. She had ample motive and the only witness to say she did not do it was her friend, out of dozens.
Historians seem to be divided right down the middle-for many reasons-and we don't suggest you stop looking into it here with us. In fact, we hope viewers are interested enough to look into it further through other sources, because there's so much more to it we couldn't fit into a reasonable-length UA-cam video. Our position on the "did she or didn't she light the fire" topic hopefully comes across a little more ambiguous-we were hoping to lay out the facts as we found them and let the viewer decide-or not decide. The importance of her guilt is debatable in the context of the rest of the story-Angelique's life and ultimate fate were horrific regardless. There is more than one crime within this story. The general consensus seems to be: let's hope she lit the fire. One more thing: her friend, Marie-Manon, said to the authorities that Angelique did light the fire-not that Angelique was innocent. In the transcripts of the 'trial' it's recorded that Angelique was enraged by this testimony-though that doesn't really point in one direction or another. A lot of our episodes have hefty UA-cam descriptions that contain addendum to the stories we cover, so be sure to look into this one's to find out more.
You want to talk about oppression in Canada? Let's talk about the indigenous who continue to be killed by the government in a continued attempt to get them off of the land.
???? Free land tax, free university and college, and can also go to university in the US as long as they are living on the rez. Major tax breaks. Major indigenous outreach specifically for them.

@@btwbrii Apologize? Lol You like lip service?! I prefer action. And, by the way, the liberals and the democrats have no plans in protecting indigenous land or giving any of it back. In fact, UN Agenda 21/2030 is all about taking more land away from the people- pushing 90% of the population into high density smart cities under the guise of sustainability. This will mean that most of us wont own any land because we will live in an apartment or townhouse, wont be able to access provincial parks as they make them off limits to the public, and wont be able to purchase land out in the country if we wanted to.

I'm glad youtube is around so videos like these can be made. There is not time in history class to teach all of history. One cannot expect to be taught of every arson or criminal or murderer. As for her being innocent? Common she already set one fire and got caught. And why would you baselessly blame it on the other woman while crying foul for Angelique?
They don't even teach slave history in Canada. It's all propaganda; which is why most Canadians to this day don't know Canada had a history of slavery.

WE should remenber that first nations had slaves before the europeens arrived. Slavery was practice in every corner of the world and is still practiced today in many parts of the world.
I think every black Canadian I have met has been first generation Caribbean. Haven’t met any North American slave descendants the way the US has. Haven’t even come across any online. Always Caribbean.
They are communities of Black Loyalists in Atlantic Canada which date from the American independence war. There were also settlement of Black Loyalists in Southern Ontario, if my memories serve me well. But they are probably less numerous than the Caribbeans immigrants nowadays and also less urban, so probably less online.
Canada needs to bring back the death penalty. Not for this kind of case, but for the obvious murderers that are a threat to society. I don't understand why Canada doesn't have capital punishment.
I from Montréal and I learn this fact in school and every time I am in sock when some of my friends did not studied the dark history of Canada at school 🏫
They should play your videos in secondary school history classes and have class discussions and or assignments on the disturbing but true history of Canada. I feel the majority of Canadians are ignorant to the dark history of our nation, even the majority of fellow First Nations don't know of the extent to which the Canadian government has tried to eradicate us in a genocidal system that had gone on for centuries and is still having a tragic impact on the majority of indigenous communities today.
Hey, guess what! I am a history teacher doing exactly that. There is also the excellent ressource Great Canadian Mysteries, that has a bunch of primary documents and lesson plans for teachers to tell this story and others. I highly recommend it.
So why was Angelique carrying a shovel filled with coil up to the attic, or did she not and the niece was just told to say that to pin the blame on her?
You realize natives ritually tortured their captives before enslaving them right? Far worse than the French did. They also tortured captives and cannibalized them. Do we talk about that at all? We don't. Native atrocities must come to light.
@@jasonnelson639 4,000 slaves is not a lot, slaves had lives comparable to indentured servants. Natives tortured captives and slaves, and still the Tlingit in Alaska were taking slaves in 1903. Look up the case Shah Quah
@@hre2044 you should never use a piece of history to silence another piece of history. it makes you look like you're trying to hide something, or dismiss the stories and issues of others, those current and in the past. you want to bring light to "native atrocities"? go make a video about it instead. maybe only 4000 people became slaves, but they were slaves to your ancestors. and i don't think your family has paid them back, have they?
@@cl0wnju1ce87 History should be used to silence propaganda and bring context. The idea that whites are any more wicked than any other ethnic grouping is foolish, they owe natives nothing as individualism stipulates society should not be based around collective guilt and race essentialism. We live under a liberal individualist society, at least we did until leftists tookover the institutions. If the society at large only talks about one group committing attrocities, white ignoring all other groups that did them, do you not thing that's creating a bias in people's heads that whites are uniquely responsible for these things? The idea of the noble savage is clearly false, natives often worked with Europeans to destroy other native tribes and take their territory. I simply don't want my people being smeared as uniquely evil when every other group is responsible for the same things whites did in the past.
There were witnesses who saw them running back and forth so I dont understand how she was thought to set the fire. Even this video isn't adding up for me. 🤔
I don't think it mattered if there was even a witness who was standing in front of her during the entire fire. she was black, she was a slave, she was guilty of arson already, and her (white) lover who helped start the first fire was missing. If god had parted the clouds and declared her innocent they would have just found a new god to listen to. You're trying to use logic, but they weren't being logical.
The French should have been sent back to France instead of allowed to stay for 100 years , after Louis lost the Wars against the British. Slavery and the Métis population would not have happened. Canada, Now, would not be blamed or left paying financially or morally today. History is a lesson and should be not changed but used to better humanity and taught, unchanged ,generationally. Unfortunately there is too much money to be made by politicians and their lobbyist. It is easy to blame, victimize and divide for control and power while the perpetrators of yesterday are still getting wealthier from everyday people suffering!
All that could be said is some friend,she may not have wanted to take the blame for her mistake even if the publshement was cruel, or did she run away with the man.
Ils ne font que parler des pires histoires que le Québec a a raconté. Aucune mention de l'esclavagisme en ontario, bref, du Québec Bashing financé par le gouvernement.
"Slavery" is any system in which principles of property law are applied to people, allowing individuals to own, buy and sell other individuals, as a de jure form of property. A slave is unable to withdraw unilaterally from such an arrangement and works without remuneration. Slavery still exists around the world. The United Nations has said there are between 40 and 50 million people around the world even today that are Slaves.!! We here in the western world have become mentally lazy. We no longer expose people to many topic growing up as a child in school. Schools Only give you enough education to make you a great slave and behave the way the farm wishes you too. We Have become Naive to this in the western world. People Live in there Bubble wrapped world. Even the so called highly educated Professional people. Live in there glass bubble. There's a Form of sex Slave too! Woman Children and men Are bought and sold Just like cattle on a farm. There's a form of DEBT Slave also! It is still called Debt bondage, also known as debt slavery or bonded labour,(have ever herd the term. Can they be “BONDED”? If so, you got your slave score. Bonded Labour is the pledge of a person's services as security for the repayment for a debt or other obligation, where the terms of the repayment are not clearly or reasonably stated, and the person who is holding the debt and thus has some control over the laborer- This being a modren form of the banks holding over you your credit score. The government using Taxes deducted from your gains. Indentured servants were/are men and women who signed a contract (Gainfully employed) (also known as an indenture or a covenant, Employment Contract) by which they agreed to work for a certain number of hours per week and years in exchange for transportation, food, clothing and shelter. (YOUR CAR) and, (YOUR food) And YOUR clothing, and YOUR shelter.(mortgage on your house!) Have you signed a Contract for an Education in only one topical area of Expertise ?? Mm Doctoral, Masters..Yip Slaves! Have you signed a loan for your education, a car loan or Mortgage? Unless you buy something cash. Or pay for something with your profits. Your unknowingly a slave to your debt. An most of you all will never understand that! Is that an insult to your intelligence. Sort of. But did it just make you think about your life and situation. Hopefully!! Examples are Has that Modern Hockey Player Signed a contract to play so many games for a couple million a year?? They are Slaves too!! Never truly knowing that though. They are just the modern Gladiator of the Once great Roman empire! Didn't know this. But Gladiators in Roman where paid a lot of money!! Chefs where paid a lot of money too!! So Are you seeing how you've been brain washed into believing your Life is a "free" life??? The Illusions of freedom are all around you. Most of you live in a state of Compliance. An Not ever really knowing the cage you live in and under. You could be Liberal, Conservative, Open Minded, Religious. All these are the masterfully art of Animal training. To be an AWAKENED mind you must be able to see through the cloud of Animal Training. Teach your child Independence! Teach them Critical thinking!! Teach them Life skills!! Teach and expose them at as many topics as there are in an Encyclopedia!! Awaken your own mind, Soul and life!! Live free is you can!! An DARE!!
Now lets see historical revisionists show HOW MANY EX BLACK SLAVES made it to pre-Canada, how many were brought by pre-Canadians like my ancestor did, and how LITTLE preCanada participated in slavery. OH THATS RIGHT, todays fucktard asshole society is burning statues of early prime ministers and slandering/libelling/defaming anyone who originated this country... Its all the rage to demonize and ABUSE western society lately. LETS ALL BE VICTIMS AND DESTROY ANYTHING GOOD WE DID >:-(
The natives took slaves too, those were not recorded. Natives tortured their slaves after capturing them during raids, natives were worse to their slaves.
Our slavery was 98% First Nations, mostly captured Iroquois who were raiding us. This is a well researched fact. Our black slaves were few, and were generally treated very fair.
FINALLY!! A great video without robotic voices. Im American and am curious about Canadian history. Much respect to you, Canada!

There was no evidence, only rumours, no one saw her set the fire!! She was horribly tortured (the bones in her legs crushed) until she confessed!

Warm? hot for sure
Canada needs to bring back the death penalty. Not for this kind of case, but for the obvious murderers that are a threat to society. I don't understand why Canada doesn't have capital punishment.
Great job thank you
RIP...my ancestor✝️💒📖🙏🏾
We’re all ancestors from God!
They only slavery that happened in Canada was when Canada was called New France and it only happened in Quebec
Wasn't slavery outlawed there in 1807 alongside the rest of the British empire?
And in the end.... she may have set the fire.
I from Montréal and I learn this fact in school and every time I am in sock when some of my friends did not studied the dark history of Canada at school 🏫
History teachers should be doing that just like the blacks in America didn’t know their own people sold their own on the shores of Africa!
They should play your videos in secondary school history classes and have class discussions and or assignments on the disturbing but true history of Canada. I feel the majority of Canadians are ignorant to the dark history of our nation, even the majority of fellow First Nations don't know of the extent to which the Canadian government has tried to eradicate us in a genocidal system that had gone on for centuries and is still having a tragic impact on the majority of indigenous communities today.
I hate how Canada tries to hide their history 🤦🏽♂️ we are just as bad as America
Hey, guess what! I am a history teacher doing exactly that. There is also the excellent ressource Great Canadian Mysteries, that has a bunch of primary documents and lesson plans for teachers to tell this story and others. I highly recommend it.
@@waviih5276 Not even close to bei g close.
Need more of this
I love your videos keep up the good work
Superb!!!
These are fascinating,
So why was Angelique carrying a shovel filled with coil up to the attic, or did she not and the niece was just told to say that to pin the blame on her?
1 of the 10 of 1000,000s of Canadian horror stories but Canada hands are so clean. Hypocrisy is an understatement.
Canadians have always been brainwashed by propaganda.
You realize natives ritually tortured their captives before enslaving them right? Far worse than the French did. They also tortured captives and cannibalized them. Do we talk about that at all?
We don't. Native atrocities must come to light.
@@jasonnelson639 4,000 slaves is not a lot, slaves had lives comparable to indentured servants.
Natives tortured captives and slaves, and still the Tlingit in Alaska were taking slaves in 1903. Look up the case Shah Quah
@@hre2044 you should never use a piece of history to silence another piece of history. it makes you look like you're trying to hide something, or dismiss the stories and issues of others, those current and in the past. you want to bring light to "native atrocities"? go make a video about it instead. maybe only 4000 people became slaves, but they were slaves to your ancestors. and i don't think your family has paid them back, have they?
@@cl0wnju1ce87 History should be used to silence propaganda and bring context. The idea that whites are any more wicked than any other ethnic grouping is foolish, they owe natives nothing as individualism stipulates society should not be based around collective guilt and race essentialism. We live under a liberal individualist society, at least we did until leftists tookover the institutions.
If the society at large only talks about one group committing attrocities, white ignoring all other groups that did them, do you not thing that's creating a bias in people's heads that whites are uniquely responsible for these things? The idea of the noble savage is clearly false, natives often worked with Europeans to destroy other native tribes and take their territory.
I simply don't want my people being smeared as uniquely evil when every other group is responsible for the same things whites did in the past.
She was never supposed to die!
I'd be interested in learning the legal difference between the slave and the indentured servant. Just out of curiosity.
Ask every country that has one or the other still to this day!
We need to listen because they still doing this
You mean riots in the street and busting windows? Yup they are still rioting over bullshit!
How can someone burn a woman so cruel for wanting freedom
I mean if she set fires she was willing to burn others...
just another day with hateful people that show no remorse@@shawnpitman876
woah thats heavy.
There were witnesses who saw them running back and forth so I dont understand how she was thought to set the fire. Even this video isn't adding up for me. 🤔
I don't think it mattered if there was even a witness who was standing in front of her during the entire fire. she was black, she was a slave, she was guilty of arson already, and her (white) lover who helped start the first fire was missing. If god had parted the clouds and declared her innocent they would have just found a new god to listen to. You're trying to use logic, but they weren't being logical.
@@hotcrazycatladyme168sounds like the OJ murders.. jurors could have seen it but still let him off. 😂
It isn’t fair she never got her freedom ugh I hate racism
Yes racists against whites too don’t forget!
We don't know if she is guilty or not. An eye witness did saw her leaving the burning room.
The French should have been sent back to France instead of allowed to stay for 100 years , after Louis lost the Wars against the British. Slavery and the Métis population would not have happened. Canada, Now, would not be blamed or left paying financially or morally today. History is a lesson and should be not changed but used to better humanity and taught, unchanged ,generationally. Unfortunately there is too much money to be made by politicians and their lobbyist. It is easy to blame, victimize and divide for control and power while the perpetrators of yesterday are still getting wealthier from everyday people suffering!
All that could be said is some friend,she may not have wanted to take the blame for her mistake even if the publshement was cruel, or did she run away with the man.
Damn people were cruel back in the day!
The good old days.
Never again! & We shall never forget .
Now talk about the French Colons who were hung for treason without court Marshall, for fighting for the French own territory ..
This video isn't for that, sorry
Ils ne font que parler des pires histoires que le Québec a a raconté.
Aucune mention de l'esclavagisme en ontario, bref, du Québec Bashing financé par le gouvernement.
"Slavery" is any system in which principles of property law are applied to people, allowing individuals to own, buy and sell other individuals, as a de jure form of property. A slave is unable to withdraw unilaterally from such an arrangement and works without remuneration.
Slavery still exists around the world. The United Nations has said there are between 40 and 50 million people around the world even today that are Slaves.!!
We here in the western world have become mentally lazy. We no longer expose people to many topic growing up as a child in school. Schools Only give you enough education to make you a great slave and behave the way the farm wishes you too. We Have become Naive to this in the western world. People Live in there Bubble wrapped world. Even the so called highly educated Professional people. Live in there glass bubble.
There's a Form of sex Slave too! Woman Children and men Are bought and sold Just like cattle on a farm.
There's a form of DEBT Slave also! It is still called Debt bondage, also known as debt slavery or bonded labour,(have ever herd the term. Can they be “BONDED”? If so, you got your slave score. Bonded Labour is the pledge of a person's services as security for the repayment for a debt or other obligation, where the terms of the repayment are not clearly or reasonably stated, and the person who is holding the debt and thus has some control over the laborer- This being a modren form of the banks holding over you your credit score. The government using Taxes deducted from your gains.
Indentured servants were/are men and women who signed a contract (Gainfully employed) (also known as an indenture or a covenant, Employment Contract) by which they agreed to work for a certain number of hours per week and years in exchange for transportation, food, clothing and shelter. (YOUR CAR) and, (YOUR food) And YOUR clothing, and YOUR shelter.(mortgage on your house!)
Have you signed a Contract for an Education in only one topical area of Expertise ?? Mm Doctoral, Masters..Yip Slaves!
Have you signed a loan for your education, a car loan or Mortgage? Unless you buy something cash. Or pay for something with your profits. Your unknowingly a slave to your debt. An most of you all will never understand that! Is that an insult to your intelligence. Sort of. But did it just make you think about your life and situation. Hopefully!!
Examples are
Has that Modern Hockey Player Signed a contract to play so many games for a couple million a year?? They are Slaves too!! Never truly knowing that though. They are just the modern Gladiator of the Once great Roman empire! Didn't know this. But Gladiators in Roman where paid a lot of money!! Chefs where paid a lot of money too!!
So Are you seeing how you've been brain washed into believing your Life is a "free" life??? The Illusions of freedom are all around you. Most of you live in a state of Compliance.
An Not ever really knowing the cage you live in and under. You could be Liberal, Conservative, Open Minded, Religious. All these are the masterfully art of Animal training.
To be an AWAKENED mind you must be able to see through the cloud of Animal Training. Teach your child Independence! Teach them Critical thinking!! Teach them Life skills!! Teach and expose them at as many topics as there are in an Encyclopedia!!
Awaken your own mind, Soul and life!! Live free is you can!! An DARE!!
How could she walk if her femurs were crushed?
While I knew Canada had slaves, it did surprise me it was as many as four thousand.
Now lets see historical revisionists show HOW MANY EX BLACK SLAVES made it to pre-Canada, how many were brought by pre-Canadians like my ancestor did, and how LITTLE preCanada participated in slavery. OH THATS RIGHT, todays fucktard asshole society is burning statues of early prime ministers and slandering/libelling/defaming anyone who originated this country...
Its all the rage to demonize and ABUSE western society lately. LETS ALL BE VICTIMS AND DESTROY ANYTHING GOOD WE DID >:-(
CANADA never had slaves!
@@christopherblackhall2832 Why do you say that? Brainwashed much?
The natives took slaves too, those were not recorded. Natives tortured their slaves after capturing them during raids, natives were worse to their slaves.
@@hre2044every country has blood on their hands!
Pas de moustachu au 18 siècles! Sinon bravo!
Germany has no issue with teaching its students about the mistakes their country made in the past. We can't learn from our mistakes if we hide them.
So what history do you want it to be part of ?
As well everything before 1800 is not part of Canadian History ?
It’s sad this happened I hope we can reconcile with our history
Time to move on or every nation tribe and tongue will want reparations 😂
Thanks
Joseph Brant was a slaveowner. How come there has been no mad rush to erasenhis name from street signs?
sad what we as canadians have done to many tribes of people like the blacks , natives , the chinese , dukabours
Research on why we searched for new lands to the west. Hint: It starts with the Xiongnu. But maybe start with the mongols. Save some time.
Don’t forget what was done to whites all over the world too! Bloodshed hands are in every country! Time to move on do better!
And to whites! Yes all nations tribes and tongues did bad to each other!
That was by the French, not the British.
Yes the British did much worse
@@frostedpumpkin3910so? They’re all guilty back then! Time to move on!
@@Caareenkm6726 😂 you’re watching a history video
@@frostedpumpkin3910you are too! So? Life goes on! Move on. Every country is guilty of bloodshed! Time to do better!
Just said she did it to get them to stop torturing her...
sad story.
This story makes me ashamed to be Canadian.
Not me! Time to move on. I didn’t do that and neither did my ancestors! I’m not paying for old crimes! Every country has bloodshed on their hands!
I’m not ashamed as I and my ancestors had nothing to do with it!
Why? Did you do it!? I didn’t either!
Private property is the root of all evil
goddamn the old days were shit
These is unbeleivable
JUSTICE IS REQUIRED FOR HER
She may have been guilty. So no.
wow@@tiffaniterris2886
Reparations I suppose? 🙄 then you got to go back to bible times about slavery!
Ooooh wow 😢
I cried...
British cigarette.
thanks for this as upset as i am.
People were so cruel them days,Her skin color dint help either
Yuh da truth
And there’s why .. the grammar! 😂

Oui, il y avait de l'esclavage au Canada
@S M Tu as raison, mais c'était bien après cet événement.
🖤✊🏽🔥
The big sad
Slavery was long abolished before Canada’s 1867. British Colonies - had slavery, Canada itself wasn’t’ yet Canada.
There was a French colony named Canada and Canadiens living in it long before the Confederation.
Quebec has a separate Constitution it's not part of Canada
Good luck with that position.
@@EdinburghFive my apologies that you don't see the scam Merry Christmas
@@garyclothier9914 A rather random post.
do you know why she is really important?
That was terrible
Had us as slaves
Buck breakin
Whites were slaves too .. hee haw !
Who wasn’t a slave?
All countries sucked in the past. We all know it. What's the point?
To learn about it and not repeat the same mistakes
And still we cant admit theres too much racism and bigotry in canada
Yes against whites too!
Revised history
Our slavery was 98% First Nations, mostly captured Iroquois who were raiding us. This is a well researched fact. Our black slaves were few, and were generally treated very fair.
This is such a great story, but dude's voice is a tad annoying.
whoever disliked this video can burn in hell
You’re so sweet! 🙄
