Yeah but they weren't shopping at Costco. In those days it was the Hudson Bay founded in 1670.

I'm looking forward to theBay's 350th anniversary next May. They will be blowing out Beaver Hats and Pelts.

That's exactly what the North American Indian said about the White Man 300 years ago.


You're right. It's human nature.

Some day in the future the first settlers of Mars or Europa will be saying the same of the second wave of new Martians etc..

There were an estimated 200,000 Native Indians living in Canada when Europeans began settling there in the 16th Century. According to Statistics Canada there are now 1,600,000 Native Indians living in Canada.(including 500,000 Ahoy Metis!)

So much for the genocide myth. Though the rounding up of native Children beginning in the late 19th century and forcing them into Residential Schools is a huge stain on Canada's history.
