Systemic Racism

[lars573]

Here's another clarification. It's well documented that many First nations and Inuit reserves can be shit places to live. The more northern and/or remote your reserve is the lower the standards of living can get. With money from programs having a really hard time getting to the people who need them. The complaint before the CHRC was predicated on the haphazard decentralized way that child welfare programs are funded was de facto discrimination. The tribunal agreed. The complaint was more than likely lodged as a way to get around the previous Harper Conservative government ignoring them. A government that tried to turn people living on reserves against their leadership by forcing them to publicly disclose their finances.

Sure, I've noted that in reading the decision, but the reasoning with respect to "de facto discrimination" was paradoxical to the point that formulating a non-discriminatory policy by it would be logically impossible.
