I don’t understand how it is possible that a wealthy, blessed nation like ours can’t deal with these issues. When I was writing NEXT I spent a lot of time going over the primary population data about indigenous people and issues. What I learned shocked me. 2/n
Indigenous lifespans in Canada are more like those in developing nations. Health stats, prison pop over-representation, children in foster care, lack of housing and clean water, poor educational outcomes, etc etc. The numbers are horrific. 3/n
Our nation’s original sin must be remembered. But tears are not enough. The ongoing issues confronting indigenous Canadians is what I’m thinking about today. We can’t fix the past but we have the means to deal with on-going issues now. Now we need focus and will. 5/5
What really puts it into perspective is denominator. The indigenous population is Canada is SMALL. No matter how it adds up (status on and off reserve, Inuit and Métis, self identification) it’s a couple of million. Tops. On reserve status Indians are only about 400K souls. 4/n
I avoid sharing my personal views about issues on social media. I stick to data and analysis. National Truth and Reconciliation is an exception. It’s about remembering but so much more. This is undeniably Canada’s ongoing shame. 1/n

@Klisterboy@darrellbricker@BrickerCal I took this photo of my husband @darrellbricker and his brother for their mom. I think that’s okay. I’m very proud of them. I also took loads of photos of the whole band. So don’t worry.

Everyone, please retweet this to get Pooka a taco party. Even if you have no idea who Pooka is. And if you have no idea who Pooka is, you should watch ‘Pooka’, the film from Blumhouse and Hulu, because it’s an amazing movie that I recommend to anyone who likes MOVIES. :’’D
This is *not* an April Fools joke. Tell Doug Ford: political slogans don't belong on license plates. #onpoli#cdnpoli https://t.co/uKqJW9ynEM via @leadnowca
