Harper’s aboriginal epiphany

Prime Minister Stephen Harper wants First Nations to follow submissively in his footsteps just as he follows Canadian corporations.

To the Editor,

Prime Minister Stephen Harper wants the First Nations people to follow submissively in his footsteps just as he follows in the tire tracks of Canadian corporations.

He recently had an epiphany on the road to Beijing: don’t talk, carry a bigger stick. No doubt those carrying “Idle No More” signs have strengthened his resolve.

When he gets frustrated, and he will, Harper will find an excuse for using his powerful federal stick and then try to justify any undemocratic under-handed action.
