The public schools deliberately do not teach that history. They also gloss over the US genocide and apartheid against the people known as Native Americans.
As for the generally “nice and polite” Canadians, their treatment of the First Nations people has also been appalling.
This is all consistent with the tactics and strategies of the British Empire during the past five centuries, during which the Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Belgian and French Empires also perpetrated brutality for economic gains.
Britain, France, Holland, the U.S. and many others who engaged in Imperialism and do to this day are no different now than they have been for centuries. They will not change until they cease to exist. They are all like the scorpion riding on the frog's back. It is their nature because they are scorpions.
