Just making a comment in passing based on something I read in Michael Crichton's book State of Fear. One racist thing Europeans did is refer to Indians as Indians. NW of here is a tribe of Sioux Indians that were adopted by the Canadian government for their service to the British Empire fighting the Americans in the war of 1812. NE is a tribe of Swampy Cree and due north is a tribe of Dene and east is a Metis settlement which is Cree/French. All groups have distinct histories, identities and languages as different as Irish is from Finnish. At least we can't take the blame for introducing them to alcohol, the Natives were brewing booze centuries before Columbus showed up.
