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

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?
