And about 100 years ago, the Irish rebelled and won their independence from England. And those that didn't are no longer being treated this way, and haven't been for more than 50 years.

So what exactly should the English learn from Canadians today? Even the Irish in Northern Ireland have more freedom and autonomy than the First Nations have in Canada, not less.

Not to mention that UK doesn't even belong to EU for a quite considerable time for a random person to take a bloody notice.
Ireland does, though, and is it conceivable that a victim might also learn from Canada's mistakes?
The articles was praising Canada's treatment of the First Nations as a thing that EU countries should learn from, not mistakes to learn from.
The level of ignorance of some people here is astonishing.
