>country tosses out a foreign country's literature in place for their own literature
I don't see a problem with this. Canadian students reading British literature is a result of leftist globalism. Canadian students should be taught Canadian literature.

Most indigenous writers comment about their oppression so more or less kids are gonna learn how mean the white man is.

I had more respect for the left when they were communists. They may not have understood basic economics but at least they wanted to create something.
The left doesn't want to create anything anymore, all they want to do is tear down every positive aspect of modern civilization and replace it with a stone-age third world shithole.
Canada. What the fuck happened? It went from americas hat to a shithole begging to be raped.

Do your natives even have a written literature?
>>131321427
Indigenous doesn't exclusively refer to natives. The article could simply mean white Canadians. I don't see what that has to do with anything though since natives are a part of the fabric of Canadian identity and they've been here for 12,000 years which is far more preferable than being a cuck and learning another country's literature

>Indigenous doesn't exclusively refer to natives
That's an entirely true and reasonable assumption. But come on, you know they're talking eskimos and so on. If it was just canadian writers they probably wouldn't have run the story and they certainly wouldn't have broken out "Indigenous" politically correct code for eskimos and indians.

That's like asking your son to stay in your basement for 40 years.
Let Canada have its own culture you leftist globalist. Teaching our children foreign literature is a leftist ideology. Teaching our children Canadian literature (regardless if it's white or native) is a rightist ideology.

fucking this.
In high school we had to overanalyze his meme works (r&j, hamlet, king leer) over and over again. I know he performed his plays for the upper class alot but I'm pretty sure none of the peasants in the globe theater are gonna go home and write papers on the importance of symbols.

Eskimos are more foreign to Canada than England is you fucking spastic. What's your obsession with fucking geography?
>>131323583
I agree eskimos are foreign (they're siberians who've crossed over during the winter), but not all natives are eskimos you dumb American.
>>131318107
Personally I hate shakapear. But your country unlike the USA never had a litterary revolution.

>>131323094
I disagree. Although the staples like Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet may not be as great as they are made out to be, his comedies are god tier. Taming of the Shrew is still one of my favorite plays that he made.
Fakespeare isn't British culture.

>>131323745

ALSO
this happened because the schoolboard receives more money from teaching about natives rather than Shakespeare.
>>131323511
>>131323904
It was written for the masses, not just the elites.
It's the equivalence to modern day sit-coms.
Not saying it was bad, and it was certainly better than most stuff from that era.
But it's like people in the year 2200 talking about how The Office was a great work of art.
As someone in teachers college, this stuff makes me cringe. I think it's important to have national literature in the class, but there is a reason we read literary giants such as Shakespeare.
This is the sort of thing that makes me want to redpill every kindergarten student.

I think it's more or less that he was revolutionary in the fact that his plays were the first of their kind really. While I understand that it is essentially like sit-coms today, shows like Seinfeld will be talked about in the future as a great work of art because it's very similar to what I mentioned above about Shakespeare.

The real reason is because not only are Ontario students too retarded now to comprehend Shakespeare but the teachers are too stupid to be capable of teaching it either.
I don't know what the schools are like over there but mine butchered Shakespeare anyway. We read basically abridged versions of it, skipping whole plots, no discussion of meter or performance, limited explanations of the context it was written in only when absolutely necessary to understand a plot point. I think it's just mandatory and even the teacher didn't appreciate it
>>131317905
is this really surprising?
Canadians are the only whites that barely has any culture, they didn't fight for independence like Americans and everybody else, they sucked Britain's dick until Britain said fine, they're the descendent's of cowards, they're only known for hockey, maple syrup and moose, there's isn't any worldwide famous inventor or scientist from Canada, they're known for being extremely polite beta faggots, it's literally a meme on the internet,
