CBC. Gets worse every year I swear. May as well call it “boohoo Indians TV”. A lot of “news” or “features” is ‘muh indigynus’ this that the other. Obligatory Red Indian story.
What about the peoples that were before the Indians? Oh yeah. They wiped em out.
This. I have seen this attitude on the reserve first hand. It's the mindset you would have seen in communist Russia. Rather have everyone starve than have one person make more of themselves than the other.
Crabs in a bucket. It’s like with any kind of economic ghetto, from homeless “transitionary housing”, to the projects. Can’t succeed in that kind of environment.
No one from the community wanted to better themselves because those that tried just had other community members come squat in their house and steal and break their shit because "sharing" was part of the "culture"

I spent some time on a reserve in Australia.
