Compare And Contrast The Native American Treatment Of Natives

Treatment of Native Americans Vs. Canadians

The Natives, the people in North America long before the settlers arrived. The indigenous people that had ruled the lands long before any other, but they are treated terribly. Native Canadians and Americans have always been subject to discrimination, racism, and just overall have been treated wrong. Many people know how terribly the Native Americans were treated, but were the Candaians just as bad in treating their natives? The Native Canadians had been treated just as bad as the Native Americans, if not worse. How, why and to what extent were they both treated?
