Why do we have an Aboriginal Heritage Day and not a Chinese, Indian, British, or French Heritage day? They all had vital roles in making this country what it is today.

Well, maybe because they were the first settlers here? Yes, the Chinese, Indian, British, and French all held a vital role in developing this country but come on...Let the Aboriginals have their day

i miss failing bastardo :)



I remember Trout Lake used to host these aboriginal festivals that had native dances and fireworks... i guess it happened on aboriginal day?

been so long those events were actually quite fun as a kid

Wish I could be in BC for the festivities :\

There's a totem pole in Kowloon Park actually.. I think it's Salish. But it is in extremely rough shape, and will probably be taken down sooner rather than later :(

You really are trying hard to be nice these days.

It is really refreshing to see.


Back on topic.............. Yes, I knew about Aboriginal Day. Nice to see a thread about it on RS.

What ever happened to Native Russ?

Not that I'm trying to be nice - I am always nice. I am just trying to be mean less often :)

MG1 06-20-2011 08:57 PM

KayCaz, are Potlatches still illegal?


Let me rephrase that.......... are your people holding potlatches again even though it is illegal by white man's laws?

KayCaz 06-20-2011 09:02 PM

is it illegal? I never knew that lol

saucywoman 06-20-2011 09:23 PM

if I remember correctly potlatches were illegal, but not anymore

Don't worry about it,everyone is welcome to a RS meet,nobody will judge you because of your race,everyone I have ever met at a RS meet was cool.

SkinnyPupp 06-20-2011 10:12 PM

Yeah I assume most people would act differently in person than they do on RS. Or at least I hope so
