Let's hope they've improved the service delivery. I also think #nonstatus and #metis should be included.

Another #indigenous young woman was #murdered. By a 14 year old boy.
This girl was only 18, just looking forward to a fresh start after being bounced around the #childwelfare system.
We have to do better.

This 11 year old #indigenous boy was beaten at school by #racist bullies.
They're only getting a slap on the wrist, and it's not treated as a #hatecrime. Disgusting.

People that assault the vulnerable (i.e. elderly, disabled, children.) deserve a special burning hot seat in hell.

I remember this. I wasn't born yet when it first aired, but I saw it in syndication.
I remember it felt so empowering as a little kid to hear those words. It made a real impression on me. It was one of my first experiences of hearing what strong autonomy sounded like, and that kids were just as valuable as anyone.
RIP, Rev. Jesse Jackson

This could be big, or could be more lip service. We shall see. It doesn't give any #land rights or #harvesting rights, it's more about internal affairs and #governance, so I'm not too hopeful.
