Third world Canada

Hi Friends

The former Aboriginal affairs Minister for Ontario, Brad Duguid has brought the third world charity group, "Right to Play" to the northern reserves.

Is this an admission, finally, by the Canadian Government that the First Nations are living in third world conditions? Has Canada decided to turn over their responsibility for the reserves' child welfare system to charitable organizations?

The effects of colonization still plague the Nations. The residential school system reigned supreme here for generations of abuse and mistreatment for these people. The apology in June of 2008 has not removed the generational damage done to them.

It has been said over and over in many ways by sage after sage;" A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members."
