Pam Palmateer Responds to Public Opinion

This column in Macleans by Pam Palmateer is so good: Shut Your Festering Gob, Settler

She's much more generous here than I would be, though:

Even Angus Reid himself seems to have difficulty accepting the racist undertones of his poll’s findings; he says he does not consider the Canadians who hold these ideas to be “racist,” but instead “hardliners” who don’t think more money is the answer to growing poverty in First Nations. It’s a surprising conclusion given the over-abundance of research and data that shows just the opposite.

Jesus Christ, Angus Reid. Shut your festering gob, already.
