killjoy Posted May 28, 2006 Report Posted May 28, 2006 Canada is a 'kindler, gentler', apartheid. Segregate. Segregate. Segregate. In the beginning that was the white man's mantra, and soon it became the natives'. We are cursed to 'negotiating' and 're-negotiating' these land disputes until the end of time simply because we (Canadians and Natives) refuse to make ONE single citizen* entity (instead of three: Native. Quebecois. Everyone else). I don't believe Canada has ever fully honoured one single treaty to its' full. I don't believe I've ever heard native leaders admit that keeping their heritage will never really happen with the daydream that they can live in isolation. Kinda backfired, didn't? I mean if I could use one word to describe the state of the average native in Canada I would use the word, 'isolated'. Or maybe ‘quarantined’. Or simply, ‘segregated’. *sounds logical I know, but the idea was probably too 'American' and 'course that trumps all . Quote
