At least I think it does -- the MSM haven't been covering it the past couple of days.
Preston Manning said that all Canadians should be viewed as equal before the law. Sheila Copps (I believe it was) denounced this statement as racist. We are now reaping the results of the triumph of such thinking.
Those in authority no longer understand that for a semblance of justice to prevail the law must apply equally to all Canadians. They're supposed to protect the law-abiding and punish law-breakers. Their present actions achieve the opposite.
Canadians are generally full of patience and goodwill (to the tune of eight billion dollars annually). But their storehouse of patience and goodwill (and cash) is finite. The first nations may find that they end up killing the goose that delivered the golden eggs to their doors with such regularity for years and years and years.

Anyone who objects to a Liberal position, program, or activity is automatically "racist".
The term has been so debased that it is a subject of derision.
For example "Mr. Martin, why did you attend a Tamil Tiger potluck supper?"
Answer "You're a racist."
I wonder if the Indian band could be sued for damages?

Regrettably, we taxpayers would probably get stuck with both sides of the bill.
The media and the Indians trashed the mayor of Caledonia for suggesting the natives were on welfare. Nobody answered the question about the funds that are distributed to the various native groups.
Here's where some of your tax dollars go. Personally, I would rather see the money go to health care. $300 million buys a lot of beds.

What we need is a Gaelic/Celtic Restitution Fund to compensate me and my fellow Celts for the injustices associated with losing our language and our culture to the English.
Speaking the world's most useful, universal and profitable language, and being able to participate in the most successful and prosperous culture in history is hardly compensation enough for losing ones cultural identity.
I'll settle for $1,000,000 and tax-free status.
Of course, I have some English blood in me, so there's a chance that I owe some money to myself.
Perhaps there's government grant money available for cases such as this.
