One has to truly wonder when the Globe and Mail will get off its various Liberal hobby horses that relate largely to minority social, health, justice, and education issues. There is no evidence that "people are looking away". The polls, which is all we have to understand the attitudes of Canadians, suggest that most people: (i) are concerned, (ii) want Aboriginal peoples to be able to live healthy and meaningful lives, (iii) expect governments, including First Nations governments, to act and to act with evidence, reason, and balance, and (iv) see the issues (e.g. of teen suicide and parent addictions) in the broader context of isolated small communities with few employment opportunities, now and into the future, and limited motivations for education and moving elsewhere. If the Globe and Mail has practical and affordable strategies for the next decade, beyond "bleating like sheep", then it should put its money where its mouth is.
