The Canadian genocide of the First Nations is the genocide and systematic destruction of the First Nations people and identity in Canada since its founding.[1] Throughout the history of Canada, the Canadian government has committed what has variously been described as atrocities, crimes, and genocide, against the Indigenous peoples in Canada.
According to some authors, Canada is a settler-colonial state "whose sovereignty and political economy is premised on the dispossession of Indigenous peoples and the exploitation of their land base", and therefore various concepts were used as justifications for the genocide since the very beginnings of the federation and its predecessor states.[1][2]
The crimes which were committed by the Catholic Church and the Canadian government were called genocide by Pope Francis.[3]
In 2022, the Canadian House of Commons unanimously called on the federal government to recognize the residential school system as genocide.[4]
