Greed appears as a prime factor with Indigenous, political and more problems
A My Canada view tells life in Canada has been influenced or perhaps a better term is directed to a great degree by treatment of the native, first nation or indigenous population (whichever term suits). The ‘other’ people that are part of this nation and have been since before the newcomers arrived were always mistreated according to historical records. From using military might to drive aboriginal inhabitants onto created wilderness reserves where they would not interfere with the new arrivals plans, to removing their children placing them in residential schools, attempting to convert them into the occupiers society while eliminating their own culture is the basis of the ongoing problem.
The Indigenous people so called problem is only part of history casting a bad shadow on Canadian governance both during colonial rule and after Canada became a nation in 1867. For instance in the dark days of the second World War Japanese men, women and children immigrants were unceremoniously imprisoned in isolated labour camps in the west, mostly without cause. A boat load of Jews trying to escape Hitler's heartless dictatorship were refused entry and eventually imprisoned in European concentration camps. The list could continue through needless historical research of the country’s history resulting in Canada’s reputation becoming compromised by such revelations. So the Indigenous situation now and then is something that should and must be dealt with by modern elected governments.
As the Indigenous population increases and others continue to become reduced in numbers a new balance must be found and implemented. Something that cannot be accomplished unless the legion of bands now disagreeing with one and other over political issues become a force moulded together for the good of every Indigenous person rather than the current “whatever is best for us” standard that keeps aboriginals from becoming a stronger segment of the overall population. Greed must be less important or the current situation will still be in place for many years. The concept of greed generated wants and supposed needs will keep Indigenous youth from reverting to a modernistic form of original life aboriginals practiced before newcomers not only imposed but encouraged the Indigenous population to practice greed overpowering equality.
Another situation that could become a problem for future generations to retain Canada's worldwide envied culture is the current practice of allowing both legal and refugee immigrants imposing other nation culture on Canada. Wearing masks on the street and in stores as well as other imported customs or religious derivatives is not only likely illegal in some instances, but simply wrong if Canada's traditional reputation is to be preserved.
An instance that could highlight the religious mask wearing problem is a situation where a man or woman were to enter a Canadian bank with a mask on the face. It's almost a certainty the situation would cause a great deal of news channel commentary if the police became involved for any reason.
On the other hand the need for controlling those practices falls to elected politicians requiring voter support from the newcomers to retain political power. Perhaps the problem isn't so much a need to control newcomer practices as it is to control those seeking election successfully after making promises that are often either not kept or changed to the benefit of allowing the party to dictate terms for Canada's future.
Canada is changing rapidly. A trip to any big city observing the changing culture and population is far different than the times that World War II refugees and immigrants arrive in the land to integrate as new Canadians.
The complete destruction of Ontario's Liberal dynasty, (if the voter polls are correct regarding the upcoming provincial election result), is perhaps an indication changes are underway to stem the furor related to the out-of-control aforementioned greed.
