Sinclair was a leader for all Canadians, which is why he not only sought to shine a light on injustice but also worked to bring Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians together to reconcile injustices of the past. While the country still mourns the past, and not all of the TRCCommission's Calls to Action have been implemented, Sinclair's memory will inspire the country to finish his job after he's gone. Murray's passing should motivate the country towardtowards more social justiceequality.
While he may have tried to pursue truth and reconciliation, much of Murray Sinclair's work was neither truthful nor pacifying. Sinclair exaggerated the number of children sent to residential schools and their negative educational and social impacts on Indigenous families. When you couple this with the residential school mass grave hoax, this so-called reconciliation movement has only torn Canadians apart and set Indigenous communities back.
