My question is does anyone want to have a WHITES ONLY event? White people as a group don't really share any heritage. There are plenty of German Clubs, Ukranian Clubs, Irish Clubs and communties throughout Canada. People of similar ethnic backgrounds enjoy getting together because of commonalities. So do other groups.
So a Native only tournament seems find if they want to host one. No one should be offended.
Beyond that to the large picture in terms of affirmative action hiring, and education benefits. I am definately in favour of those types of programs. They target disadvantaged groups and help them to get employed and educated. You only have to look at the population of homeless shelters to see that certain groups of people need help so if we can help those groups we should.
