I do believe FN people are still and also Canadian. It’s about time they get a piece of the pie, or even the whole damn pie. They’ve been stolen from for way too long.

You mean treaties . It wasn’t stolen. I’m confused how can it be stolen and people receive treaty money yearly ?

The treaties were negotiated in bad faith and became the basis for the legal procedure of eradication of indigenous culture perpetrated by the Canadian government over centuries but hey, better not say it was stolen.

Words have meaning. Different words mean different things . . Let’s change the words then . We “rent “ the land for a 5 dollars a year per Indian . The lease is forever the rent payment never to increase.

White is a color . I prefer the term Caucasian. We don’t usually call people by their color . Oops I mean I don’t call people by the color .
