Ours is going on 12. We had a pretty easy time because she's a good kid. But we were absolutely uncompromising when it came to the rules. And there aren't that many rules early on. Feed them, hug them, make them get plenty of sleep, say please and thank you and don't be mean to animals or other people.

Totally. I encounter Aboriginal people everyday. I don't think it helps the racism levels here at all. I just live in a place with buttloads of Conservative assholes.

...we have a Prime Minister that [can] claim to the world that Canada's never committed any human rights violations or some shit...

its been going on a damn sight longer than 25 years. the british government, the anglican, catholic and united churches have been monsters since the hudson's bay company was founded, and both the conservative and liberal parties of the canadian government have kept up that tradition. but that doesn't mean the people…

Umm, wow. Most non native Canadians do care but rolling back the damage done to native culture from hundreds of years of systematic racism and atrocities is not going to happen overnight either. What you see in most government and police forces are the old wave of latent racism which hopefully will die out soon. As to…

No, I don't think this is true at all. Not even close. I mean, holy shit, it's wrong. I don't know what Toronto or Montreal are like but this certainly isn't true in BC.

So true. 2 soldiers are killed and we have a law within months to curb our rights and "fight terror" but 2000 missing or murdered First Nations women and the government doesn't give a fuck. Harper can barely shrug about it, he cares so little.

Canada is fucking AWFUL to Natives. I swear, peopel harp on the States for being racist but jesus fucking christ, it's atrocious up here.

"no one really cares" is false. The conservative government in power may not care, but the population does. hence all the demands, from all levels of governement below federal, for a royal inquiry into it. the only people who don't want this are the HarperCons and the RCMP.

TCHQ here,

I NEED CONTEXT

Fuck it, wrote it for tomorrow. Everyone needs to see.

I'm really impressed with those kitties, also with that woman's pioneer dress.

This is more amazing:

Speaking of amazing... This picture from imgur.

It smells like that because it is the flesh of an animal, preserved in a can.

I'm convinced she is trolling us, just like Ann Coulter.

I desperately want this couple to happen.
