What a load of crap from Fleury. Not the aspect that there is racism but how he goes about stating it.
Yes Natives face racism, so do whites, blacks, orientals and any other minority.
I think the Natives have it pretty good here. (and this is speaking from experience working directly with them and the communities.) they are given many opportunities that other Canadians are not given and much too often to not take advantage of them. there is only so much that the Government can do to try and help to equalize the inequalities they have faced in their past before we have to wonder whether or not it is worth it.
anyways whining like this from guys like Fleury does no good in advancing the cause of equality at all. It just perpetuates the view that miorities are whiners amongst certain parts of society and reaffirms the myths that other parts believe in, while not really affecting the most of society who either don't care or know better than to turn to an idiot like Theo for their social views.
