I work in an elementary school and won't participate... I have never worn an orange shirt even though the whole student body got orange shirts bought for them to wear ..... today there is an assembly and I will not attend.... I work with a non-verbal student and they don't do well in assemblies so it's a God send..... I will wear black because I mourn what is happening to Canada.... tomorrow I will "celebrate" by sleeping in and enjoy my family who all get up in EVERY morning and go to work to pay for all this BS.....

The sad fact is that it is well-meaning judges and politicians who have cemented reserves and reserve urban culture permanently in place by giving Indians financial incentives to remain dependent in their reserves and urban ghettos.. This means that fully assimilated Indians (who pretend they are not) profit, while telling the unassimilated Indian underclass that more apartheid, not assimilation, is what they need. The orange shirts are a symbol of this hypocrisy
