I never claimed to know anything regarding any of this really...
I do however have opinions that may seem ignorant but I really couldn't care less my friend...
In regards to how I know that kids with Native status getting money (and lots of it for their 18th Birthday) I knew a native guy during High School so he may have been full of shinguard, but I trusted him. This kid was failing classes left and right and sometimes all he would talk about was how he was going to spend his government money when he turned 18... It wouldn't suprise me if I saw him on 8th ave asking for money now sadly...
What I do know as a fact is that Natives get benefits that most Canadians do not.. I don't know who exactly gets it, or how much and never claimed to know such things...
I also don't know if this is fact but don't natives get Free post secondary education? or discounts?? How is that fair to regular joe tax paying canadian?
I think reserves do need more help in getting their own people in order, better role models... Chris Simon for one helps out alot in his home town, so instead of Fleury bitching, why doesn't he do anything about it??
