Justin Trudeau on Indigenous Issues in Canada: The VICE News Interview
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- Dozens of isolated indigenous communities in Canada have recently declared states of emergency due to suicide epidemics, unclean water, and a lack of adequate infrastructure.
Amid these crises, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a historic visit last week to Shoal Lake 40, an isolated First Nations reserve that has been without clean water for two decades. It is extremely rare for sitting prime ministers to visit reserves, and the trip, organized with the local chief and council of Shoal Lake 40 in coordination with VICE and the office of the prime minister, will be part of an upcoming VICELAND documentary on the issues plaguing indigenous communities.
Trudeau spent several hours with the residents of Shoal Lake 40 before speaking to VICE News about the government’s complex relationship with First Nations, and what his new Liberal government says it will do to help solve the many problems the communities face.

my brain hurts after hearing trudea talk so much but say nothing. pure politician language. never gives an answer to any question just talks nonsense
+TheGoose31 What you said.
TheGoose31 i know what you mean. It's like a different language sometimes
Always
Your neve did her mouth full.of sweetness
Jeez I was beginning to think I couldn't grasp it cause i'm plain dumb.
Don't treat them as "indigenous" people. They are citizens of Canada. You don't have to pity them and treat them like tiny people who need to be taken care of by self-entitled people. Instead, give them their rights, which every Canadian citizen deserves. Give them respect and encourage them to stand on their own feet. Instead of treating them as "minorities" who need special rights, provide them with the basic infrastructure that every Canadian deserves.
Exactly, we have the ability to control our safety world which is in every job but they will not allow us to certify our own safety programs and courses as that is their money. We even put more of our WCB premiums money into ENFORM, ACSA, OSA but they will not allow us to have our own provider like an Aborigional Safety Association. Not a snowball's chance in hell will we be allowed to touch their money.
THANK YOU

CANADA IS ON FIRST NATIONS LANDS...DID CANADA BRING THE LAND AND RESOURCES WITH THEM WHEN THEY CAME TO OUR LANDS? TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A CONTRACT IS BREACHED? DOES THE PERSON BREAKING THE CONTRACT GET TO KEEP WHAT HE SIGNED FOR? NOT ONE TREATY HAS BEEN UPHELD/HONORED A OR ADHERED TOO...NOT ONE...CANADA IS LOCATED ON FIRST NATIONS LANDS, PLAIN AND SIMPLE...
+Tom
I agree in principle, but many of them do not WISH to be treated this way. They consider it as giving in to 'assimilation'. What I find curious is the frequency of European admixture running in the veins of our indigenous fellow-citizens. Not all are in denial, either. But cultural separatism and ethnic identitarianism are very fashionable nowadays, and I see a sort of indigenous neofascism as an offshoot.
I am not worried about the drive for local self-government in far-flung indigenous lands. In principle at least, it makes sense. But from the point of view of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Who died for the sins of ALL humanity, I am obliged to oppose racism on EVERY level, indigenous racism as well as 'white supremacy.'
@@jesusislordsavior6343
You're an idiot, you want white Christans ruling over brown people. You want them converted. You're sick!
I've been to some of the native areas in Canada. It's true, they're a dump. I have no issues with tax revenue being spent on this problem. They deserve more support, they're natives to the land.
Tax revenue??? ... federal government is trustee to native people money.
Canada get its money from the federal government.
So, native people don't get money from the "tax" people 🙄, never have.

+Utopian 989 Just keep on repeating the same comment over and over, you're doing gods work fam
He sounds like a typical politician who uses keywords to sound like he's doing something when he's really not. Nothing in regards to specifics… So basically he's a poser
+Johnny Little - exactly, just like his old man who played around paddling a canoe and wore indian garb
@Larry David he didn't do enogh, what are u talking about, the origanal comment is pretty spot on
Johnny Little : politics 101 , smile for the camera
Thank you
This is a very good thing Justin did. People in the comments here are so fucking stupid, maybe you haven't discriminated directly to indigenous people but Canada as a whole has always disregarded them and it's good to see Justin step in and do something about it.
Just ignore the conservative retards.Best part in this is that they're whining like a bunch of school girls.
So you are saying that even thought you may not have been racist to them, you are racist anyway......yeah no that's not how it works
+TheHdZuuLu Right... Because it's totally the responsibility of the Canadian tax payer to pay for free shit in the middle of nowhere.
+pwrserge83 we're helping Canadians though? This indigenous community has no access to clean drinking water and Justin is helping that cause. Who cares if they're in a remote area, they're still Canadians at the end of the day and Trudeau is doing what he can to help him... Seriously man what is wrong with you?
TheHdZuuLu As our buddy above pointed out, they are not, in fact, Canadians. If they were, they would not have special privileges not granted to actual Canadian citizens.
The comment section proves that American right wing idiocy is contagious and has spread to Canada
you mean our last chance at sanity.
Don't go to the comments. It's cancer down there.
Woooooow........haven't heard that one before
Funny how conservatives call liberals emotional, and yet here they are calling liberals names like a bunch of emotional school children.
Indeed.I love the irony in this. :)
+Judicial78 Yes, let's take the small sample size of 20 people who are throwing MEMEs around to paint all conservatives with a broad brush.
+Ganjaseed aw, do you feel offended? I think a lot of conservatives might tell you to suck it up.
Ganjaseed Happens everywhere dude. Get real.
Believe it or not but people use insults to reflect how they think of someone.....do you need a safe space to protect you?

+Liam L. Oh yeah, that's unsettling.
Vanguard
In theory, It could explain the phenomenon of the hundreds of indigenous native girls being kidnapped and murder every year in Canada, where the third wave feminism is proliferant Sad, mentally deranged, gun toting, trump virgins.... Yup, unsettling indeed.
+Nick DeBusk I think mostly its that his name is Justin, I just cant handle that in a leader
+Liam L. I personally had high hopes for Justin, now not so much, too much foot dragging.
idk this guy. I'm an American. I'm not a republican or democrat. This is my take: It's great that he's concerned, absolutely great. The entire time I was thinking "damn. the pres. of the U.S. would never do this." The problem is, he's throwing a lot of money around. The liberal is very strong in this one. "investments, projects, infrastructure, funding, etc." should have asked him what he's cutting to pay for all that, or how much he's increasing taxes, or how much he's inflating the economy and further devaluing the Canadian dollar. Does Canada have the reserves to throw money around like this? I like that he sounds like he's not going to make it a social welfare project. It sounds like he's going to use funding to encourage independent growth. Good on him and the honest Canadians like him. It's weird seeing a politician that isn't a snake, being American and all. The only question is this: where dafuq he getting all this money?
+Clayton Sage He's cutting our already old, sad and under manned and funded military, he's cutting a few other social programs designed for the middle class like income splitting and he's going into massive debt, as per his campaign promise.
My question is, why arent natives paying municipal taxes and funding their own supply of water LIKE EVERY OTHER NON NATIVE COMMUNITY IN CANADA.
+Clayton Sage Oil country bud. If it ain't in the bank, it's definitely in the ground. U.S.'s been buying up all our shit since I've been alive. Water too. Cracking down on logging, mining & oil, probably for the good, but just all the Industry! 8 billion? Not too too much, I would say, to start at least helping an entire country's population of Native Peoples. 18'd do 'em better, but it's a nice, positive start. Investment in our future & our Humanity. I didn't even vote for this dude, but I couldn't feel prouder. He's a True Canadian.
Clayton Sage listen to how he answers questions he is just saying nonsens
It's been 5 years. What have you done Mr Trudeau?
At least we have a Prime Minister who is genuinely concerned with the terrible conditions the First Nations people live with in Canada and a Indigenous and Northern Affairs Minister with a heart (unlike John Duncan, as a quick example).
+Eusunt Dac Well, at least before Obama, we had a President with a brain.
pwrserge83
Is that the President that invaded Iraq cause he thought there were weapons of mass destruction? Not that Obama is better at all. He just lied and put on a pretty face for cameras.
Eusunt Dac You mean the same weapons that wound up in Syria because we gave Saddam almost a year to clear out?
pwrserge83
Clear out where? To the Moon? There were no WMD found, period. Now, You can make-up whatever story You wish but that facts stand: no WMDs were found in Iraq.
Eusunt Dac Actually, there were. The majority, however, were shipped to Syria.

All the other animals watched, the bears the Eagles the moose and so forth. Moose called out to the Humming bird " What do you think this is going to accomplish?! It's hopeless my little friend!"And the Humming bird called out to the Moose and all the other animals ." This is our home. And i am going to do everything that I can."

+Joshua Boucher its clean bottle water from the ground. That is the most logical solution at the moment, ground infrastructure is going to take years to create .

+R mcvyp Right. From a LAKE. But do you know how to create a filtration and water pipe system that would take that lake water and have it run through for them to use?
GuyanaOFFICIAL Would you mind coming to the reserves and teaching us this or maybe try to convince First nations people to fucking take care of themselves.
for the people who say "why dont these people move to Winnipeg or other nearby cities where these facilities are available" they clearly dont understand what it means to leave your homeland. what they dont understand is that even Syrians and other refugees wudnt want to leave their country if they had any other option to stay alive. They are the conservatives who are so privileged that they cannot relate to anyone who has grown up in a different environment than their's.
I'll admit the way Justin Trudeau talks is a little annoying
+Joziah Montalvo He's so polite he always lets interviewers interrupt him. Maybe overly Canadian, but maybe just a little new still. Can't wait to see if he start interrupting interviewers.
+Joziah Montalvo He speaks English with a Quebecois lilt, it bugs the shit out of me too. He sounds like a confused guy from Quebec sometimes...
ameanasaur lol Hey I still remember Cretchen's accent. That was some straight up molasses! At least he doesn't try speaking half of his sentences backwards. I think he thinks en Français, but has to mostly speak in English.
Cretchen was the worst, sounded like he had a stroke hahahahah You hit the nail on the head about Trudeau though there's a little delay sometimes between his brain and his mouth due to translation lol
A little?
For all of Trudeau's faults, perceived or otherwise, we can't deny that he at least cares and is at least doing something. This is so much better that politicians who do nothing but make empty promises and lambast their political opponents. He's barely warmed his seat in office. Give the man a chance.
Okay...it's been 5 years. What has he done?
Who would of guessed that a former drama teacher can act. He sure can deliver lines.
Can somebody from NA explain why there is so much hate towards this guy?
Conservatives are loud. Lots of people like him, but conservatives think he's fake or acting. They also don't like how he's a self described feminist and claim he is unprepared. In my opinion he's alright; however.
+Barmeester Because people disliked his father and care more about money then the state of our country.
+Barmeester
Angry conservatives whining and bitching that Canada kicked them out and that the country for the most part (not completely) likes the new Prime Minister for whom the conservatives have an irrational hate on for.
I mean the last conservative Prime Minister muzzled scientists, lacked transparency, was unaccountable, ruined the economy and used robocalls to send voters to non-existent voting locations, but for some reason the 30%-39% of Canadian who usually vote conservative didn't seem to mind.
Just crazy angry whiney conservatives.
Just remember online comments, specially regarding politics, often do not represent the feelings of the population. It's mostly radicals from different political ideologies yelling nonsense at each other. This may change in the future.
+Barmeester
Because he and his party only received about 40% of the vote (the most of the 3 major parties) during the last election, which means that there are a lot of Canadians who didn't vote for him, yet now they are stuck with him
I have not discriminated anyone, speak for yourself "Justin".
9 billion dollars........ That could fix a lot of our countries problems, but we had to spend it on .008 percent of the population. Justin what the actual fuck are you doing?
I find it odd when Canadians call Americans bigoted, evil or just how much better Canadians are than Americans, they never want to be reminded of how Canada's record with the people of the first nations isn't much better than ours.
wait. what?
+HireDeLune Isn't much better than ours.
+theylied1776 ....Native Americans in the US are effectively all gone. Genocide. At least there are still some indigenous people left in Canada. That's a BIG difference.
TheMontegonian There are 2.5 million Native American people in the United States. Representing over 42 Nations.
www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0762159.htm
Where there are 1.8 million in Canada. That's a Big Difference! So you're wrong!
www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/aboriginal-people-demography/
At least look up these facts before you make a complete ass out of yourself, again?
+TheMontegonian umm what?
Where the clean water at
I am Metis. I have family living on Reservations. The problem is our government segregates Indigenous people from the rest of the population. Why in this century do we have reservations? They are concentration camps for native people.
Band councils are people too and many are corrupt and do not share the money that is allotted to the people fairly.
Each person should be treated as an individual with all rights and freedoms as a Canadian. Not labeled, not segregated.
Also, I understand each indigenous person is considered a ward of the state. Yet a child in foster care, that is also considered a ward of the state in Canada, is released from any financial supports at the age of 18. Yet.... the Canadian tax payer must pay for an indigenous person, all their natural life.* Why should people have to financially support a race of people who are just as capable to work and earn a wage, as anyone else that was born here.
You give a person a fish they eat for a day, Teach a person to fish they eat everyday.
(* contingent on particulars.)
People generally are not racist in Canada. Most are extremely empathetic towards the plight of indigenous people and their communities. There is, however, a great deal of resentment. Billions of tax payer dollars go to support one race. (As discussed in many a coffee shop) It is no longer equality with-in a net work multiculturalism but a guilt trip from our government guilting tax payers to feel sorry for indigenous people. They don't need money, they don't need sympathy. They need to be Canadian.
He's really close to common people, which is rare among politicians. I kind of like it, but sometimes he goes too far in his "white guilt" sort of thing. Guess nobody's perfect.
He appears to be close to people.......as most politicians aim for, he sure as he'll isn't close to white people who don't buy into they are the reason everything is bad in the world.
+Utopian 989 There are whole communities that don't have running water in Canada. Just hearing about that astonished me.
As long as that's the case, of course there are some things that need to change.
Besides, there's nothing wrong with helping people once in a while. As long as it doesn't really hurt yourself in the long run.
+ThornInTheEye - "close to common people" !!! you serious dude, do you know anything about this trust fund brat? do some reading
It is really hard for me to care about people who they themselves do not consider themselves Canadian citizens. Our people first and the rest of the world second.

I'm not surprised that these places suffer from high levels of suicide and economic deprivation. There doesn't look like there is any viable industry here. Maybe these people need the option of being rehoused in a city with far more jobs? Don't keep them chained to these reservations by their 'elders'. I'm not sure pumping more and more money into these places will fix these issues. No doubt that's already been tried?
I swear Vice is obsessed with him, just like fox with Donald Trump
+Curtis I to be fair, every news organization (at least in the US) is obsessed with trump, either in an anti-Trump way or a pro-trump way. and in my own opinion, The New York Times I've seen has had more articles about Trump than Fox News or any other news organization.
As soon as he was voted in, he opened the doors, to anyone who can prove that he or she was Native before it was 50/50 , he has change the law to only a 1% ,So now there entitled to all education and health benefits and programs and now land claims, so now the funding has got thinner now , not as much money anymore to go around, every time they say where adding to First Nations funds It goes to Indian affairs offices in the main city's they hire more none Native people in those offices , So every time you here, the government is putting more money in to First Nations is all B.S.
so people are upset because we want to provide clean water to people? HOW DARE THEE
The problem is that the reserves have mismanaged funds and as a direct result aren't able to function. They're asking the federal government to build absurdly expensive infrastructure for small communities. Its simply insane.
Actually, by now the federal government is supposed to release native money and they can be self-sufficient when the "Indian affairs" was caught stealing money back in '85... and so far Canada owes native money for that, and that's why the topic is Canada wants to cut the treaty.
I have spent the last few months learning the truth of what the Canadian government did to these people. As a Canadian I am sick ..my heart has been broken. I can't believe all they've suffered. Shame on us ...we can do better
CONVOY
Justin guilt tripping again.
Please explain
The prime minister is basically just a spokesperson for the establishment? What does the prime minister actually know or do that's useful to the people that are forced to pay his salary? The whole system is a cruel joke.
***** he "leads" the country? and what exactly does that entail?
***** what does he *personally* do? it seems like he does a lot of talky talky and not much else...
Trudeau is the real deal. I am an American and I researched him years ago. Canada is very lucky to have a Prime Minister of his moral fiber and character. I only wish I could say the same for my country. I believe Trudeau will follow through on the promises in starting to rectify the social and infrastructure injustices which have befallen the indigenous communities in Canada.
I'm honestly proud to be living in a country with a leader who has compassion and empathy for those less off. I don't agree with Trudeau on everything and feel he's wrong on certain issues, however I would never hesitate to call him a good man. He's a man with love in his heart and for that alone is deserving of respect.
Yeah….ummm…about that chief…
Please enlighten me...what has he done? It's been 3 years since your comment.
Well you my friend are very gullible. All that trudeau is saying is some PR bulls*it . When an oil pipeline was supposed to go through , a native majority area , the natives opposed they pipeline . But justin trudeau , the messiah of native Americans and the hero against climate change , did it anyways
It's sad how 90% of commenters only want to talk about Trudeau while the bigger issues facing indigenous communities are ignored. If only their Lord and saviour Jesus Harper were here to save these kids.... oh wait.
Okay...5 years later and Trudeau in power....please enlighten me on what he's done. Educate me.
we can send all the $ in the world to the first nations but after spending all of it, things will be back to the way they were before. it's a politically incorrect thing to mention, but it needs to be mentioned. lot of Canadians feel the same way but they remain quiet b/c of political correctness & the liberals' monopoly on the Canadian media. truth is first nations have deep seated problems. the catholic church & its residential schools probably played a major role in causing those problems. harshness of residential schools produced lots of psychological scars passing down traumas to present day. there's so many messed up Aboriginal families that are undereducated & miserable. we can give them more $ but it's not going to solve anything. i don't know how the Aboriginals can be productive members of Canadian society but giving them $ isn't the solution. lot of Canadians are in quiet agreement that Aboriginals are a burden to Canada, but they're keeping it quiet b/c of political correctness.
joe mammon you’re right..
Trudeau u admited that the native of canadia has been discriminated for so long. But i want to ask u when r u going to compensate them in cash ?

Kids and People should Never, Ever, be an Issue.
So, Mr. Trudeau is saying that, indigenous people, as nations, can expect more of the same. They will be subsumed under the Canadian government approval process with development, developers and the desires of capital for profit driving and ultimately running the show. Surely, Mr. Trudeau can understand the simple concept that authentic consent and control over indigenous lands by indigenous peoples (all lands not taken up for settlement and immigration as treated by and with the Crown and subsequently, through colonization were stolen and deemed to be "Crown" lands),
means having a veto, being able to say no BEFORE any Government or corporate processes are initiated. But, it's not really a veto. Canadians must recognize (communicating this with colonialized language and concepts) that indigenous people are sovereign over their traditional lands, lands that were not ceded to the Crown and most of which were never the subject of treaties, that Canadians and corporations have been stealing from First Nations since colonialization began. There has been little "sharing" of resources. As "sovereign" nations, the Government of Canada and the state's sanctioned corporations, must negotiate directly with First Nations in a nation-to-nation relationship where one nation can say no to the other. Any desire by Canadians and corporations to use these lands or extract resources requires consent first, not mere "consultation" with indigenous people as just another "stakeholder" in the process who would be "accommodated" through "compensation." No means no and must be respected.
Given the rapid deterioration of the web-of-life, embracing, rather than resisting such a relationship is in the best interests of all.
The colonists keep justifying their crimes and robberies.
Blah blah
Yuen
Mommy mout colanize
'Thank you for joining us', yeah you were the only media allowed by Trudeau on this trip. The local native news media were even kicked out.
I have worked with several people who are Native and talking to them you learn so much about to plight of the Native people and the struggles with inequality they face. This woman I spoke with was taken from her home as a child with her brother and placed into foster care because the government thought her parents were unfit to care for them. Her brother developed depression and committed suicide. She has told me about the decline in her Native culture and traditions and language and its really troubling when you here about something like this is happening in Canada.
I grew up with indigenous people and honestly it feels wrong to put any label on them indigenous native aboriginal etc as it feels racist to me. they are people while I see the struggles I also see a politician using someone's struggles for his own ends and Im pretty sure the people I grew up with would be using terms youtube would ban me for to Describe Mr Trudeau
@@Kid_Kootenay I wrote this comment when Stephen Harper was Prime Minister and if you compare Harper’s record and Trudeau’s record on First Nations issues from billion dollar government investments, billion dollar court settlements, completion of the Murdered and Missing Women inquiry, residential school and unmarked graves discoveries, and progress towards ensuring clean drinking water native residence despite setbacks from the pandemic, Trudeau’s record is better. And there is nothing to suggest that Poilievre would do any better. I’m not claiming that Trudeau and his government has been perfect or done all the right things on indigenous issues but certainly better then any other Prime Minister before him.
@@crobinson2624 oh yeah there were no mass graves found in BC that was a myth I'm not saying they aren't mass Graves but that proved to be fake and just disturbance in the ground and the majority of Reserves in Canada are corrupt as hell that is major reason why some reserves still don't have clean drinking water the federal government leaves it up to the Reserve to do it for themselves and politicians being politicians give it to there families keep it for themselves or spend it on useless things that are not drinking water
So after 2 years, what's been done?
Yes Justin it's time to step up to your plate and start sharing profits from our natural resources with indigenous people Its long overdue They deserve to live like human beings Yes start to open and build pipelines n make sure our natives get the jobs with all other benefits monies from their land Do the right thing for all Canadians ❤
profits of natural resources should be shared with ALL people not just 'native' people ...whatever that means. Infact we are ALL owed a perencetage of wealth base on our claimed bewuathal of the earth that belongs to EVERYONE or it belongs to NO ONE!
Provincial governments are in controlling the wealth of our resources…can’t blame everything on Trudeau

Thats why conservtives lost to liberals.. Liberals still keeping the treay promise ,if conservatives won instead of liberals indigenous people will be suffering and making canadian government a promise breaker to natives ,a treaty was made to keep not to use to threat against natives like harper did.
I don't like Trudeau, but this is a good thing.

Give a man a fish feed him for a day
Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.
Canada is enabling natives, suckling on the teet of the taxpayer.
We need to completely level the playing field for ALL Canadians.
For example, give all Canadian kids tax funded post-secondary education or give it to none of them.
This two tiered system is really pissing off the middle class.
FurballHero Native ppl don't leach off your taxes lmao do some research about native ppl and taxes... you might be surprised lol
wow read a book man. read seven fallen feathers. listen to more cbc. get a brain. you know NOTHING about this clearly. if you would like to learn iam happy to teach you a thing or two
After four years and he did nothing
Inb4 9 months later 50% of those 13 bill in funds stolen
the first nations people who get the money will hide it watch
I don't agree with he fact that only Vice covered this but I'm glad that Justin is pulling through on his promises. Whether all of this has a real effect on the area, we have yet to tell.
5 years later...what has he done? What promises has he held? Please name 1 promise he pulled thru
Oh great. Another mangina.
+Alex M Carl Sagan would not have approve of Trudeau.
+Rogsterius he would approve of trudeau, your stupid not to believe so
Alex M I'm actually for all of that, except the food stamps. The issue is that he's essentially a radical faminist. But I can imagine you think affirmative action aka "postivive discrimination" is suuuper liberal.
Midnite Reveries It was a joke. While I like Carl Sagan I don't agree with everything he says. Don't take yourself too seriously, cheers.
*Generation-x and Boomers Caucasians: keeps Natives in Bad conditions along with systematic rasism
*Natives: Cleans up their act and tries to get a good life with some Government support
*Caucasians: "these freeloaders!!! Get back in your place"
Build a village-scale water treatment plant next to the lake and teach the locals how to maintain it and repair it. If they don't have electricity to run the water treatment plant then also build a village-scale power plant (probably a hydro plant) and so on. Their are many isolated villages around the world that are also sustainable and modern because they figured this stuff out.
No road to get the materials to bring materials necessary to build the well. Nice idea but it's flawed until a road is built.
@@liam822lk yeah you talk nonsense, in russia we have both electricity and water without having any roads...
I would CHALLENGE Justin Trudeau to stay ONE WEEK Shoal Lake 40 in an Elders home with no special treatment to live as they do. It’s not enough to carry a few jugs of water and Pat peoples shoulders Mr. Prime Minister. I CHALLENGE YOU!
,
Remember the amount of money given to First Nation Groups is Impeccable, To all those american saying were Racist were not! we've given time and time again to these group to get them on their feet. I am by no means saying we've given enough........... but we are most certainly not discriminating on the sensationalized level VICE (Who's been going down hill since 2011) Has said we as Canadians are. Unfortunately it seems that we have created more of a reliance problem (welfare) then creating a good solution Aka Stability (In Monthly Funds) and Integration into Society. Although we haven't done enough I firmly believe we as Canadians are not "Racist" but rather are compassionate and fully giving within reason to that ONE issue that faces us as Canadians
A MESSAGE TO ALL AMERICANS THAT JUST SIMPLY DON'T UNDERSTAND.
Thanks for reading as you are now informed.
Great another Trudeau media machine
What is wrong with the water behind them?
There's no treatment facility. It's lake water so it has bacteria, fish waste, etc in it.
+Paul Carrasco you don't need a whole water treatment facility to drink water from nature. First you filter it through a cloth, then you boil it and there you go. Clean drinking water.
+Apricity yeah, that's probably how they survive now but that's a whole strain on the community to acquire their drinking water that way. they need a facility so they can divert their time elsewhere to further their communities and it's also an embarrassment for a develop country to not have that infrastructure for its people
Paul Carrasco They don't need infrastructure to survive. They've lived primitively for thousands of years so why would they have to change now?
+Apricity so did your ancestors but I bet you don't live off the land in a shelter you built yourself filtering your own water
In Atiwapiskat how much is the Chief paid......how much extra if they bring their spouse on as a consultant
Our treaty promises clean air, water,soil..i dont see improvements Trudeau!
They keep Jesus poor and on the street of a homeless Canada and it's like Jesus still walks the earth for nothing he can't find but I fight for what is mine and that is the power the Justin Trudeau has that very power
Drink every time Trudeau says, "uh".
2019. Justin Trudeau only buys organic. Meanwhile a lot of Canadians do not. Why? APPLES ARE $1 EACH (example). It's fine if you can afford it, but that doesn't mean you should. The moral of the story here is, Justin wasn't my favourite Prime Minister. I send my condolences to the families of the missing Indigenous women.
He literally just seems like a nice guy and everyone is giving him shit... Why u do dis? 😢
+Subscriptions He's a fraud. You must not be very old if you think this guy is genuine. He's filling you full of shit for his own gain. I bet that a whole industry pops up around this funding. They will provide little or no usable services and pocket the rest. Why? That's because everybody knows that these people are too pathetic but by doing this they make fools think they are actually going to accomplish something so you can stop worrying about them. They live this way because that's all they're capable of.
+Subscriptions lool Canada also has conservatives
Now, I know there are 2 types of justin in Canada...justin trudeau and justin bieber
He doesn’t walk the talk, nothing but peachy speech, we are at his action and justice for the Indigenous people?!
8 billion is to be spent on indigenous communities. There are around 30 million Canadians. So that comes out to roughly $267 per Canadian per year to help a small percent of the population. Also, 1/3 of Canadians don't pay income tax so we got $400 per Canadian taxpayer per year.
Woah, the comments here are crazy.
Damn, who summoned the hordes of /pol/ onto here?
This reporter's questions are far too long-winded.
As an American I have no idea what's going on, and why/how is your PM doing such a shit job? (That seems to be the overall opinion of him through the comments.)
***** Thank's for responding, I appreciate it. As you might know any major American media outlet is pretty self absorbed. So thankful the net offers news sites like Al Jazeera and others for a global unbiased view. The whole world seems to be in constant conflict now. It's just sad.
Focusing on Trudeau was it something specific in his policy making that made him unpopular, or lack thereof? Or is it more of just not the right man for the job kind of deal? I will most likely read up on him anyways, but I think it's always better to get the opinion of the people who have had to endure while he is in office.
I truly fear for my country. So many desperate people who think our country is in some bad way right now when overall we are better off than 95% of the world. More of our lovely medias doing. I mean 15 years ago if you would have told me, one of these two people will be our next POTUS. Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump I would have laughed my ass off. I HATE both of them, yet while sure there are third parties and I'm registered Libertarian. But what's the point in voting for someone who is going to get maybe 3% of the popular vote. This is America's fault for not addressing the problem of a dominant two party system and now we are going to pay the price. We either have doormat Hillary Clinton. Even though I was just a 14 year old rebel who knew it all. I never understood why she didn't leave her husband after Bill's whole, I bang random unattractive woman in the oval office and lie about it fiasco. That always stuck with me for some reason. That should be telling to a lot of American's, but hell Bill is seen as a damn hero now. Then we have Donald Douchebag Trump. A man who is not a politician. Who is a gigantic bigot and honestly thinks we can build some giant wall to keep out illegal immigrants, are you high?! This isn't ancient China you fucking looney (see what I did there). But the #1 reason why Trump shouldn't have even been considered a candidate is because of private interest. I find it impossible to believe a businessman worth 4 Billion dollars will not use the power of that office to not only increase his wealth but institue sweeping privatization across the board. There is another country who has a leader who was a billionaire businessman before he was elected to office. Fucking Putin, do you want Putin, because this is how you get Putin! /> rant
Also real quick just wanted to say I love the Great White North eh. "Take off or I'm gonna do the Steamroller".
audit the band leaders instead of throwing more money at them
He talks a bit weird but he seems genuine
Lmao.
Are the Indigenous people incapable of creating more after school programs themselves? If they are in need of more counsellors, why aren't there more Indigenous people becoming counsellors to help support their local communities? What am I missing?
What you are missing is that federal government is not helping as much as they suppose too, federal government is trustee to native money and Canada government spends so much of it and does want to pay it back, so that leaves native people with so much money to handle for each native community
guys if were talking about reserves... they're better here than in the states
It is a good thing to act ! We must think about future generations 🫂
Here is a question to battle out why do the Indigenous peoples still need reserves?
I have been seeing Canadians bashing american politics, and as an American I am laughing that these canadians are ignoring regions in their country LOL
What a dumb comment.. these are small tiny very isolated communities without road access and hundreds of km from the nearest town... you're entire cities are dumps and ignored.. just to name one have you seen skid row? talk about ignoring
It's not just Canada with this problem America has the same issue so all those Americans hating on Canada need to chill and maybe try to start something like this in your government.
Where is Shoal Lake today? Has the promises been kept? Is there infrastructure in place? Does the water issues persist?
