""is time to stop the finger pointing at past injustice, and to start to plan for a better future for all!"'

Muc of the finger pointing that I have seen is pointed at the aboriginal peoples, not by them.

I agree that it is econimically convenient for non-natives to "forget the past injustices". However, for the aboriginal peoples part of the better future you mention is based on the past. Treaties were signed and not honoured. Rights were ignored. Native peoples were marginalized in a society where others prospered, often at their loss. Most often when asked "white mans courts" have reaffirmed these rights and treaties, and condemmed the wrongs. While it is socially and economically "convient" to avoid reflecting and recognizing the past, doing so only delays the inevitable. Let's face it, we are a plentiful society. It is time to move forward with honour and "right" the historic wrongs that we have inherited from deeds our forefathers and collectively benefited from.
