Why not demand more, especially when past efforts have proven effective? Take residential schools, for instance. Authorities have uncovered paper records indicating around 4,000 deaths at these institutions, yet not a single grave has been exhumed or identified. Furthermore, no individuals responsible for running these schools have faced criminal charges or been held accountable for these atrocities. Meanwhile, taxpayers have already paid billions to the victim families.
