I remember reading before that the life expectancy for natives at the time of European contact was something like 30 years old. They were in bad shape in a lot of parts of North America, and considering how far back they were from the rest of the world in technology, it's hard to imagine things would have improved.
I'd be willing to bet the quality of living for most is better now than it would have been if Canada was not built on this land.
