national attention: It doesn't even appear in James Daschuk 2013 book, "Clearing the Plains," which drew national attention to what he saw as a deliberate policy by prime minister John A. Macdonald to weaken the Plains natives by providing them with insufficient food, according to The Waterloo Record. It began to attract widespread attention when Supreme Court of Canada Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin used the phrase in a public speech. Until a short time ago, no one had heard of it, other than a few specialists. Since the report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission was published last week, with the phrase a key part of its analysis and commentary, its words have became an integral part of our everyday talk. The answer to that has to be Yes. The question is whether it should remain there.
