Comment: Agreed.  My ancestors were driven off of their little plots of land (crofts) in the Scottish Highlands by the English and forcibly deported to Canada in the 1840's.  Nowadays we know this as the Highland Clearances.  

I suppose that me and my children could still be sitting around moaning about it through the stories of my ancestors, but these people somehow stopped all of that and just looked forward.  It was only mentioned in passing once and a while when I grew up, and now to find out more I would have to research it myself if I was really interested.

At some point the native peoples of Canada are going to have to start looking forward instead of continually bemoaning the past.
