UN Report: Indigenous Canadians' Lives Suck

(Geneva, Switzerland) According to a United Nations human rights special investigator, Rodolfo Stavenhagen, indigenous Canadians are poorer, sicker, less educated, more socially excluded and more prone to end up in prison than almost everyone else in Canada. TheStar.com (reg. req'd) reports that the findings resulted from an investigation conducted by Stavenhagen at the request of the Canadian government. Paraphrasing the comments of Paul Meyer, Canada's ambassador to the UN, he stated, "Yeah, we know."

Apparently, the nanny state liberal government has neglected to include a portion of the population as passengers on the bus to utopia.
