Mine too but when it comes to family, it runs deep. That cocksucker was behind the residential schools too.
Did you read something in my post that someone wouldn't turn a buck? Motels don't do anything free. Nor do airlines. That's how things work in the corporate world. Perhaps if you'd set aside the prejudice you'd not be reading your own misery into things.
See above....
Apparently those folk living in the complex (a bunch of trailers donated by De Beers) weren't the Chief's cronies.
It was you who said 'Kapuskasing stepped up to the plate' when in fact nothing of the kind happened-once again your abject nonsense rears it's stupid head.
It's good to see you admit that we're all on the hook for this though.
They're in Kapuskasing, aren't they? Looks like you're the one with egg on his face and chips on his shoulder ... again.
Patronizing how so? By feeling that your statement was a racist generalization? Or by feeling that segregation should end in Canada? I'm not entirely sure which one of those comments is in either way 'patronizing'.
I find it odd that Germany ends up being the litmus test for wrongdoing. "We're not as bad as the Nazis" Yay.
A hand up or a hand out? What does Attawapiskat really need?
We're much nicer these days, we don't chastise people with funny languages, traditions, diets and religions anymore, we're much better than that.
And who is going to pay the billions and billions to build & maintain a road through the swamp to that dump in the frozen bush?
Have you ever looked @ a map to see where they are?
If they want to live in the middle of nowhere that's their business just don't ask the rest of Canada to finance their existence.
Wouldn't you think that diamond mines in the proximity would support a decent community with a good road in and out?
...and a glue gun. Lowlands is all poplar and tamarak (the latter of which is great for tanning hides).
There ya go.... Pilings for a marshland housing project. Darned weed is only really good for chip board and firewood ;-)
Anything a diamond mine would need would be barged in/trucked over the frozen swamp in winter and the goods flown out year round roads are a pipe dream.
As mentioned there's very little decent building material to hand even trees have a rough time there.
Well, it did house POWs at one point, but it was first used as an internment camps for "enemy aliens".
Those aliens with the funny language, religion and culture are a huge part of what is deemed as "real Canadians:" today.
You must have missed where I posted before that I knew and worked at the same mill as two of those prisoners. they were about 20 years older than me and one became good drinking buddy with my brother in law.
They often related to me and others in the mill that the reason they joined the German army was because of conditions were so bad for people there, that they joined just to get fed.
The one that became friends with my brother in law, actually surrendered to the Canadian soldiers, with his whole unit in the first battle he was in without firing a single shot, because they were Canadians and because the conditions of Canadians POW's were better than those of the common German soldiers.
They were prisoners of war FFS and no colour TV in them days and they had it as good as the farmers in the area.
I'm done with this dance.
