The conditions, lives and overall treatment by the two Federal governments in North America of the Native populations in Canada and the United States is nothing short of criminal and completely against what is accepted across the world as .

More than most (because of the time I’ve taken to learn, that others haven’t) I’m aware of what it’s like for Aboriginal people in Canada.

I thought I’d seen some really bad stuff here in Canada… until I read this post about an Australian minister who wants to clear remote communities and force Australia’s remote Aboriginal communities to move into built up areas.

Mr Johns says the Government should rewrite welfare rules permanently to force Aborigines to move out of remote areas.

A blatant call to further destroy a traditional indigenous way of life, and further colonise a people.  To most decent people it’s shocking.  What’s even more shocking is this kind of mentality and train of thought is very common amongst Australians and their government.
