Letter to the editor: New history needed

With Patrick Madahbee’s urging some years ago when I was a federal Liberal MP for the riding of Algoma-Manitoulin-Kapuskasing I was pleased to develop and introduce a private Member’s Bill which, if adopted by Parliament, would have called upon on the Federal Government to promote with the Provinces the teaching of Aboriginal history in all Canadian schools. The Bill died on the Order paper when the 2008 federal election came along. I lost the election so the Bill was never reintroduced. I believe the time is right for this to be done by another MP.
