Well I guess I just thought that anyone with even a cursory knowledge of Canadian history would have some idea of what I'm getting at, but let's just start with systemic inequality/violence and neglect by the state:

- Residential schools
- Highway of Tears
- The Pickton case where VPD/RCMP did dick all to act when the majority of women being killed were aboriginal
- Saskatchewan RCMP practices (numerous)

Those are four right off the top of my head. Do I need to go into things like Oka as well?
