    Sadly, this is far from isolated. Something very similar happened to my ex's father years ago at a local mall. The majority of my visibly #indigenous friends get followed, accused, and/or treated poorly at various stores.

    There needs to be stiffer punishment for companies that #raciallyprofile

    The prime minister’s #FastTrack law has already set off a wave of #IndigenousProtest

    Excerpt: "The last time the federal government passed sweeping industry-friendly legislation without proper #Indigenous consultation, it triggered one of the largest grassroots political movements in Canadian history: #IdleNoMore. The movement was a direct response to the 2012 passage of the omnibus budget bill #C45, legislation that endangered #TraditionalLands and resources by reducing federal oversight on thousands of #waterways. Indigenous people across the country took part in Idle No More with widespread protests, including teach-ins, flash mobs, round dances, and blockades. Though the law remained in place, the movement showed that when governments legislate without meaningful Indigenous involvement, the consequences can be swift, sustained, and impossible to ignore.

    "Yet, across Canada’s history, Indigenous people have been European settlers’ longest allies. Relations with French settlers led to the birth of the Metis people; First Nations played pivotal roles in British efforts during the American Revolution and the War of 1812. And many Indigenous people volunteered and fought as part of Canada’s contributions to the first and second world wars.

    "Now, Canada faces new threats as the US president muses about making Canada an unwilling fifty-first state while launching a trade war on Canadian goods. But as history has proved, Canada cannot succeed in defending itself as a nation-state without acknowledging and partnering with #IndigenousNations."

  4. RCMP CIRG get 6 months training & it's fast tracked if higher up in ranks too. Ppl outside Canada - RCMP CIRG was created shortly after #IdleNoMore movement shutdown Canada & govts got scared. CIRG is full #corporateMercenaries unit, #funded by #public #TaxDollars & they use #violence on #Indigenous #FirstNations peoples on their own #Unceded lands. Govt depends on public #ignorance on #IndianAct & choose #BandCouncil #sellouts to talk to; who have ZERO #jurisdiction on non reserve lands.
