The bit of my previous comment where I said "Kill the Indian, Save the Man"? That was literally the thought process. Beat the Savage out of them, destroy the culture and make the Savage civilised. And the ripples from this are still more like waves right now. FN people are over represented in prisons. Missing women and children aren't investigated by police. Assaults on FN people often go without repercussions.

It's systemic racism. It's a genocide that's been going for more than a century, and things are only just starting to get unfucked.
