The "wagon burners" could not live with out the whiteman's welfare cheque....they are just too stupid to realize it. Every Reservation around has about an 85% un-employment rate. That speaks volumes in itself! Cut the Bums off!...then we will see what happens!
Let me explain to you why so many Natives are unimployed.
Natives in Canada lived off the land for thousands of years and thrived.Than the Canadian government sent native children to residential schools to be stripped of their culture.The new generations of natives now have no clue how to live off the land.Most reserves have little to no schools and the schools they do have dont even compare to the schools white Canadians have.Most of them have little to no education.Theres no jobs on the reservations so there is no where for them to work and since most of them dont have cars they cant work elsewhere plus alot of reserves are in the middle of nowhere.
They have no education no skills and nowhere to work.
Most Canadians are completly delusional about whats really going on with the Natives and thats just how the Canadian Government wants it.It makes their job really easy and it makes them not feel bad because no one else feels bad either.
Do some research then talk untill then dont talk about something you know nothing about because it makes you look really stupid.

Every person from miles around smokes one type or another of cigarettes from the rez. It has saved a lot of people money whether they want to admit it or not.
The stereo-types about all natives being on welfare is just that A STEREO-TYPE. Only shallow minded people would put that out there.
and yes I am white.

I wish that the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne would just open up a smoke shop in Cornwall, and be done with it. The land was never ceded. Gas and cigs in Cornwall. not too much to ask for, is it?

Ah I see, so free trade also includes smuggling a controlled substance across an international border.

Next thing yer gonna tell me is the propensity for the Akwesasne to smuggle illegal firearms into the country is also "free-trade"

Why don't you guys just cut out the kid stuff and go where the real money is, street drugs. Try selling those and see how your "free trade" argument pans out.

You know what?

MOST NATIVES ARE FREINDLY, KIND, GOOD PEOPLE! i can prove it to you! next time you interact with a native, forget they are native for a few minutes, and pretend they are white when you talk to them. you will see that the reason you have problems with natives or anyone for that matter, is because u treat them like crap and judge them before they say anything. when you do that they do the same to you!

A-holes come in all colours (and a lot of them are us white people)

Riiiight, and if the govt bans cigarettes completely, the Natives will stop making and selling them. And my unicorn farts rainbows.

You know what? When I'm in the US I couldn't agree with you more. I have several friends in MN and the Dakotas, all but one of whom are Native American. In Canada, I have NO Native friends because up here, the hatred comes from them first.

Through the years, I have been regularily mistaken to be FN by other FNs(FN means First Nations as that's what Native Canadians prefer to be called), but invariably at some point I'd be asked what nation I belonged to. When I'd respond that I didn't belong to any and that I was White, well based on the looks I'd get, I might as well have told them I murdered their mother.

Meanwhile back in the US, I've been invited to pow-wows, sweat lodges and meals, even AFTER my friends there learned I was White.

Now, I'm not saying that all the FNs are like that, but what I am saying is that my experiences with Native Americans has been a helluva lot more positive and enjoyable than with Canadian FNs.
