I did some research into slavery in Canada by reading old newspapers in the Ontario Archive. Papers from 1832 -1834 carried regular stories about the fight to end slavery in the British colonies around the world. It was not unlike today's environmental, or women's rights movements in which great energies are directed to social progress. York's women's Presbyterian church groups had an energetic antislavery crusade, writing letters to British government, law makers and had the ear of Prince Albert. Copies of their letters were widely distributed, published in York's papers and even in the Sunday Times. They raised funds in churches to carry on the crusade. They blocked Americans from bringing their slaves to Canada, but blacks escaping slavery were welcomed. They believed it was their Christian duty to end slavery because it was an affront to God's plan. York was in the vanguard of the fight against slavery in spite of having no slavery here: they had nothing to lose and so could lecture others. It is easy to ban what you don't have. Britain spent huge sums of money, today in the billions of pounds, to end colonial slavery, but now they are the bad guys. The do-gooders in the media and BLM are not interested in those white people because even today there is no "Thank you" for all the help that was offered.
That's always the case with SJWs and certain groups of people. Never recognise all the good done for them, always bring up the bad or manufacture it if there isn't enough bad stories out there. Now we know that all the efforts of those Canadians so many centuries ago was a huge mistake.

we barely learn about slavery in the canadian schools.
Because there wasn't slavery in Canada to learn about?
So why it seems like black people are aloud there now...
Shocking ... this story is too positive and doesn't fit in with my BLM narrative

love how people don't take time to look back at history and just skim it from false sources
The false sources are the lefties who rewrite and revise solid authority.
