text: The majority of these comments are either ignorant or offensive. It is not fair to say that Indigenous people need to "work within the system," when that very system has failed them for a century. It is false to say that an Indigenous child growing up on an isolated reserve has the same equal opportunity as a white child growing up in a city and that is a huge problem that has been ignored for far too long. Some progress has been made I agree, but I've been called a stupid "Indian" to my face in the workplace and I work at a Big 4 Accounting firm. Therefore, I think there is much more progress to be made.
