Default Re: Ethnic tolorance or religious tolorance in Canada...anyone know?

Well ok, basically this, during i believe the late 80s or early 90's there was a 9 hole golf course in the province of Quebec, which wanted to upgrade to a 18 hole course, only problem being the land they wanted to renovate on was Oka tribe sacred land.

Which pissed the tribe off something fierce. They had to bring in the national guard ( or lack there of in canada )
to help this situation.

Also, in the 70's in manitoba, if you search for a man named JJ Harper, he was "Accidently" shot in winnepeg i think, if memory serves me right. Well basically the cop who shot him, was off the hook in 2 days, pleading self defense, and the whole native population in that area went ape ****, and called the whole purpose of white cops in native areas into question.

Anywho, i hope this helps.
