Sorry to clarify, I mean the priests and RCMP and other politicians sacrificing indigenous kids for whatever reason.
I haven't had anyone bring that up during my coffee and tea visits out on the land not to say it does not exist. Many speak about the RCMP running them down as they tried to flee various towns.
They were all nomads living following the migration of caribou and fish during various times of the year. You still find all the tent rings and food caches out on the land. Our dumb gov't said lets round them up and force them into towns and try to force them into mining labour and residential schools.
Now these towns have non mining or military activities, you have an entire group that is nearly 80% dependent on social welfare living in very poor low income housing with the only jobs being govt jobs bared by education that 95% of them don't have since even to date in Nunavut we have a 55% grade 12 completion rate.
If everything was left alone you would have 30,000 indigenous people living a nomadic life in Nunavut and you wouldn't even notice due to the land mass of it. But we had to go mess it all up.
I should add that Hudson's Bay Company, now Northwest Company, didn't help much.
