"Trudeau to use UN speech to recognize Canada’s relationship with Indigenous peoples".

Hello? 

Indigenous peoples ARE Canadians. And so it's ridiculous to try to paint a picture where an entity called "Canada" somehow has a "relationship" with Indigenous peoples. 

Worse than ridiculous, it is dangerous, it is like throwing gasoline into a fire, because it fuels two politically-loaded and manipulative narratives. 

One is that Canada is somehow a big mommy-parent who hugs, and is to be looked up to in an endearing relationship, by citizens. Um, no, drop that propagandist delusion, please, Ottawa 's just a tax collector and policy implementer, and it's unhealthy to see it as anything more. Not coincidentally, those who do see it as anything more, they keep applauding and gulping down all the apologies (roll eyes) it emits, for long ago past wrongs, from its soap boxes.

Second is the un-needed narrative that Ottawa is a foreigner to natives. Good way to lose the shirt off your back.
