And so they should be.

Canada is sovereign nation. We made no deal with the previous
occupants.

If people want to bring up old wounds, then take them to the 
Queen of England.

While you are at it, you could also argue about war crimes,
and small pox infested blankets.

If you whine loud enough, you may even get an apology.

But thats not really what they want is it?

They want cold hard cash.

The only way the native people in this country are ever going 
to solve their social problems, is by joining the rest of 
Canada. 

Have some self respect for God's sake. Look at yourselves.

Have any of these hand outs helped you at all?

All it ever did, was make you feel more dependant,
and pitted you against the rest of society.

Stealing lobster, and stealing salmon, and pit lamping
and "Oh, but we're the poor disadvantaged indians
who used to live in harmony with the land"

Face it. Your ancestors were a bunch of butchers.

Read some history.
