They are the old colonial boys and are insensitve to human life. Like our own
Canadian Lieutenant Governor Garde Gardom quoted the British Euoropean explorer
Captain Gerorge Vancouver. Gardom made the now-controversial remarks at the
swearing-in ceremony on thursday for the new cabinet in British Columbia;

                       "The serenity of the climate, the innumerable
                       pleasing landscapes, and the abundant fertility
                       that unassisted nature puts forth, requires only
                       to be enriched by man to render it the most
                       lovely country that can be imagined.".

Millions of first nation peole are left entirly out of the equation. Like the they
were never here but are more a part of the land then the europeans who stole the
land from them. It was the earliest european "conquers" who gave the natives
thousands of blankets infected with small pox that wiped most of them out in B.C.
The First Nation' s governmentally organised systematic destruction is well
documented.

It is like there is a world class of arian assholes and killers that need to pass
on so we can relax without their bio distinctions and poor reguard for human life.
Very primative to call anyone 'oustelander'. We're all here on one planet. Get
used to it.
