Indians are generally disliked, publicly defamed, kept out of work and away from other people in Canada. It's not like the USA now at all, where a great number of our population are part Indian and away from reservations.

That's very sad, I had no idea.  Do you think that this attitude would manifest itself in literally hundreds of drivers driving past an Indian GIRL'S body on the highway without even bothering to stop? (I bolded her gender because I am of that old, discredited school that believes women are the Crown of Creation and the Light of the Universe, and deserve every possible bit of adoration and respect at all times)

Do you think that it would also manifest itself in the RCMP officers doing what appears to be a breathtakingly substandard and unprofessional "investigation" of the crime scene?

Sorry if I seem naive about Canada.....I've made it a point to avoid visiting Canada for a great many years because it seems that many of Canada's people and Government officials have not been terribly congenial toward us Yanks.

I was going to post that same thing earlier, but got distracted. Everything I've heard is that Indians are considered, at best, second class citizens, if citizens at all. At worst, they're considered sub-human; not worthy of the attention and rights as everyone else.
