I am so sorry you are experiencing this. I hope your efforts will change things
Did you listen to her. She hasnβt experienced it. She expects to so sheβs laying the racism ground work ahead of time
@Jumbo Me no, she has experienced these things. This a farewell speech because she isn’t seeking re-election. Sounds like you’re the one who didn’t listen.
β€οΈπβ€οΈ
Great job sister love your speech.
Lol yea getting ready to play the victim card for huge payout. Sheβs not stupid
She’s hilarious.
Luckily you two don’t determine another’s worth or experience…but your words show who you pledge allegiance to, best of luck there is no love or loyalty amongst thieves
Love you and appreciate your voice and efforts!
Feeling insecure doesnβt mean proof of victimization, it just means proof of your insecurity.
What is the solution?
Starr with clean water for ALL reservations across Canada π¨π¦
@AngieP P. 100% Trudeau has been promising that since in power! Typical politician tell you what you want to hear!
Stay strong and keep speaking up! Your voice needs to be heard.
Thank you
Great speech!! And absolute truth!! Hyi Hyi from Northern Cree sister!πͺΆβπΌπ¨π¦
You can’t change evil!
How about we simply go to war again?
@Dr Suicide The Righteous tribes vs the hedonists!
This is another tragedy for Canada
Listen to my tribe. This is the state of Canada. So sad.
Go back to the reserve and cry
@baby yoda baby yoda That is just not right.
@baby yoda baby yoda lmao okay racist
Not a proud Canadian right now
Down with the colonizer MPs
Yeah, we should give Nunavut their sovereignty. Then they can have their own house of commons, and their own budget.
Go NDP
NDP π§‘π§‘
This, at a time when Canada is only now acknowledging unmarked graves of indigenous kids from the residential school scandal and a time when indigenous Canadians are finally starting to be heard. This young lady may be speaking the truth as she knows it. She may feel she’s been beaten down by the system and may feel that she doesn’t have the will or the strength to carry on her promise to those who elected her. But it seems to me this is exactly why she should stand tall and carry on.
Absolutely shameful that this brave woman would be subjected to such intolerable behaviour. Even worse the limp response from the federal government. Take care of your own mess at home Trudeau!
The federal government really should feel ashamed πͺ
NDP BLESS
I’ve been living in Canada for 33+ years, and this is shameful on the Canadian government. With her words she also expresses the same circumstances that immigrants face on a daily basis.
