Seems a lot of folks from Edmonton do not like natives. Everyone I know with ties to Edmonton dislikes them in the very least. Some are outright racist towards them.
When I visited Edmonton a few years ago the first thing my friends told me was 'don't fuck with the natives'. Was told don't even look them in the eye.
Even when we visited friends of friends they warmed me to watch out for the natives after I introduced myself as being from Vancouver.
They seemed genuinely fearful of them. This was in the Stony Plain area close to highway 16. Many of them had personal stories to tell of how they were jumped, beaten robbed, bar fights and so forth with natrives in Edmonton.
I don't know how much this is true but I did witness them walking the streets in large groups and was told to never go outside at night unless you were with a large group.
My brother went there to visit shortly after I did and he told me a fucked up story in which him and a group of friends witnessed from a balcony a man robbed off everything and stripped to his underwear while being beaten to an inch of his life. The attack was committed by a group of aboriginal women.
I never experienced violence when I was there but I know my brother would not make this up, so I am not sure what to make of the situation. All I can say is there was a general fear from white people towards natives when I visited.
This is a stark contrast from B.C were my experiences with indigenous people has been nothing but positive. I do not know if these are just isolated incidents or if the native population in Edmonton is in fact geared towards violence in that area.
