Ethnic cleansing comes to Indian country

Hi Friends

the newspapers are all aflutter over those damn Mohawks kicking the non natives out of their territory.

Here

After reading some of the comments I believe that this is exactly what the Mohawks had in mind. Creating dialog around essentially what the Canadian Government has been doing to First Nation people across the country with the narrow ( and ever narrowing) stipulations around "who is an Indian" according to the Indian Act.

It never ceases to amaze me how when it's happening to your kind, it's racist, and an out-rage yet First Nations have been living an apartheid, race based, government sanctioned, existence for many many years. To the detractors read a history book, remember the apology offered June 11 2008, and, remember what it was all about.

Your thoughts?
regards Debra
