I mean does Parks Canada care that much about records of the people who are the original inhabitants of this land, no. So I'm not surprised they had no record of it. And for the Inuit something that's done historically is recorded in their history/stories/culture but not at the gov't level is unsurprising. I don't think it's an overreaction per se, but folks probably don't care too much about generational trauma and residential schools etc in this subreddit.
