Canada: In the 1880s, Canada's government created Indian Residential Schools. The idea was to assimilate Aboriginal peoples into white society. The country's prime minister, John A. MacDonald, said it would get rid of the “Indian problem.” 


The state-legislated, genocidal law was run by the church. Children who were 4-5 years old were forced away from their Indian families to live in "schools" that stripped them of their Indian cultures.


In fact, Hitler studied the residential schools' policies when dealing with those he considered "undesirable." 


The negative impacts of residential schooling on Aboriginal children and their communities has been profound. For the last 15 years or so, residential school survivors have filed almost 13,000 lawsuits against Canada and the churches for abuse.
