This is not a 'Canadian Problem' but a GLOBAL problem, faced by many Indigenous Peoples. Sociopaths will continue to do evil, until we stop them In Brazil, they are simply taking their rivers upon which they depend for their way of life. In Australia, they apologize but nothing changes. In Canada, Harper doesn't give a shit, so they rose up against him and against all the shit that many of them have had to endure for years/centuries, due to The Patriarchy. In America, Leonard Peltier remains in prison to this day, 37 YEARS after being wrongfully sent there. Obama stands in Mandela's prison cell and spouts words about Spirits and Freedom, whilst in his own country the biggest miscarriage of justice ever continues on, allowed to continue by him, for he is the ONLY person in the world who can set Leonard free and he could do it with just one signature.. It is a GLOBAL problem. The fact that Canadians are just now learning yet more history of what these Sociopaths did, in *their* name, is good...and it will be even better if more and more Canadians come to stand beside Idle No More and their First Nations Peoples, for ALL of us HAVE to Rise Up together to take these bastards down, once and for all. The Patriarchy has dominated almost every part of our lives for thousands of years..and until we all come together for a very, VERY different way of life, nothing will change much. Meanwhile, the Indigenous Peoples of the world are under threat, and that threat grows on a daily basis.
