I commend your efforts Brothers; Sisters; & Cuzzins. Especially those who have been willing 2 weave their way thru ignorant condescension; & illegal reality that is the misappropriation of personal finance; & structural fascism in violation of the very laws; in the very books; in the very language brought 2 us. Remember the good in all & accept that MY necessary stance is strongly related 2 my Original Irish; Finnish; Danish; & English Anglican Cdn bloodlines not only becuz I'm Namgis & Proud
And whose theory is that and whose agenda does it serve? Even if it were true (which it's not), the Indigenous Peoples, their nations and civilizations, thrived on this continent for millenia, that is thousands of years, before the Europeans arrived.
too bad there was never any war in which Aboriginals lost, and also, without the basis of treaties, there would be no Canada, no constitution. Treaties aren't an obligation of the government in Canada, they're the basis of Canada being able to exist.
Canada has Laws. Being a Patriotic; Original Cdn family with a long history protecting rights; laws & freedom; on all sides it makes me sick 2 think that our society would 'overlook' the sacrifices from all our families made 2 protect the development of our core beliefs. The Rights; Freedoms; Laws & 'Democracy' in Canada were NOT developed 2 oppress & restrict One distinct Cultural Group; least of which based upon their Legal Title; or Environmental; Socio-Economic Spiritual-Ethics.
Yes, but if you look at it in that way, we are all immigrants. The first human beings evolved in Africa, then immigrated to Europe, next into asia, and then into The Americas.
Too bad you have not done your research. Many indigenous peoples believe that they did not all come from the Bering strait land bridge. indiancountrymedianetwork.com/history/genealogy/the-death-of-the-bering-strait-theory/. Recently Uvic has discovered a 14,000-year-old village that was established long before the supposed land bridge. vancouverisland.ctvnews.ca/14-000-year-old-village-unearthed-on-b-c-island-by-uvic-student-1.3358511. Regardless, indigenous people were here first! it does not matter when they got here or how; their land, lives, and culture was stolen. Open your mind and put yourself in their place and try to understand the damage that was done. Defensiveness will never allow you to open up and truly empathize with others.
That is not a theory. Genetic studies of DNA have proven it. And it serves all of humanity, not just a select few. And the Indigenious peoples were living in the stone age and fought and killed each other constantly. Read David Thompsons "Travels in Western North America 1784-1812" by Victor G. Hopwood. And there was only a few hundred thousand indigenous people populating Canada back then. There is no way they could have covered the entire country and certainly could not "own" it all.
Genetics cannot "prove" a people to be from Siberia, since nationhood/peoplehood is separate from genetics. Canadians do not "cover the entire country," so does this mean that Canada has no claim to land? California has a higher population than all of Canada. Tokyo's population alone is almost as high as Canada's. Where do you draw the line when it comes to ownership?

Too bad he does not realize that Indians came from Siberia and are immigrants too.
