survivor?[edit]

Residential school survivor? That's a little biased don't you think?

Do Holocaust survivors say Holocaust survivor on their bio page? OldManRivers 08:12, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comparing the slaughtering of 6 million people to schools for Aboriginal children is idiotic.

I thought it was the accepted term. Check out the google news results for 'residential school survivor'. http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=%22residential+school+survivor%22&btnG=Search+News 71.7.133.208 (talk) 19:38, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
"abuse survivor", "cancer survivor", "airplane crash survivor" - the comparison to Holocaust survivors was a bit strident, but it's not an unusual usage, and as noted by 71.71.133.208 "residential school survivor" is a very common term.

removed criminals category[edit]

I removed Category:Canadian criminals as it's inappropriate for someone charged and jailed for simple contempt of court arising from a political protest; she may have had, indeed, an existing criminal record at the time of the Eagleridge protests, as I think Betty Krawczyk did, but "criminal" carries connotations of murderers, thieves, rapists, con artists etc and is not an appropriate term for someone hauled into court for a political protest.Skookum1 (talk) 03:08, 26 December 2009 (UTC) blah blah blah ur a loser whoever wrote any bad of survivores — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.82.8.2 (talk) 18:18, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
