For the first one, the Canadian government heavily discriminated against the Indigenous people. They were thrown off their own land, indigenous children were forced into residential schools and abused and striped of their culture and language, and they were not allowed to vote. A lot of the time, Canadian officials would get Indigenous men dr*unk and get them to sign away their land, belongings, and their status as an indigenous person. At one point in time, to be legally allowed to vote, indigenous people had to sign away their status as an indigenous person. Indigenous women have been kidnapped, r*aped, and m*urdered more than anyone else in canada. Plus, the residential schools caused dr*ug a*buse, al*lcoholism, m*ental ill*ness, s*uicide, and it has created ab*users and people who walk out on their families. The indigenous have always been treated poorly by the canadian government and canadian people.
