@ConorMahood Irish novelist #BrianMoore's 1997 #BlackRobe about the French colonisation/stealing of Canada from native peoples with aid of #CatholicPriests may seem culturally appropriative these days (I can't remember as I read it 25 years ago), but if memory serves he tried hard to avoid that awful thing of making the Algonquins speak in some pigeon-style like film and TV still do today--as if English is the only language (which happened in IRL too)...
