Canada has ethnic cleansing of aboriginals on agenda: Native ex-chief

The Canadian government seeks to systematically exterminate the population of the First Nations as part of its historical agenda of ethnic cleansing says Canadian aboriginal former chief.

“It’s part of the ongoing effort by the Canadian government to exterminate us. At one time there were as 60 to 90 million First Nation people in North America - the United States and Canada. Now there is less than three million,” said Dennis Pashe, a former Dakota Tipi First Nations chief.

“In the past, they used the gun, disease-infested blankets to wipe out our people, to take out our resources, to take our lands and to exploit them for their own profit,” he said.

“Today, they use legislation as the gun. Alcohol and drugs as the bullet, so to speak. They use alcohol and drugs to cause a lot of social dishevel in our families and communities, to undermine our family values,” Pashe added.
Recently, the UN has strongly condemned Canada's record on children's rights, and accused Ottawa of systematic discrimination against aborigines and immigrants.

According to reports,
Canada has forced thousands of aboriginal children into ghastly boarding schools where they have been abused sexually, psychologically and physically.



Meanwhile, more than 600 aboriginal women and young girls are missing in the country amid reports of rape, mutilation, and murder against female aborigines.



“It seems they’re saying that the life of an indigenous woman is not worth as much as a non-indigenous woman in Canada, so the police forces don’t treat them as a priority when they are reported missing or [involved in] violence,” Pashe pointed out.


Since Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper took power in 2006, activists say there has been a significant rise in human rights violations together with an unprecedented crackdown on freedom of speech.
