“The Dorset People existed until about 700 years ago, until the arrival of the Thule People (ancestors of the modern Inuit)…. They displaced the Dorset People in a relatively short period of time…. Do the Inuit recite land acknowledgments to the Dorset?”
The truth about Canadian history has been destroyed under the present-day government in order to gain votes! In reality, the truth is not accepted as it is not financially beneficial to so many white lawyers and aboriginal so-called chiefs and councils! While the rest pay the price of poor leadership and truth. With the billions this government has paid out over the past eight years every Aboriginal in Canada should be very wealthy not just a select few!
In a remarkable turn of events, that make this first day of April stunningly important, and compliment this articulate story, the Toronto Stare published Buffy Saint Marie's DNA results, confirming now and forever, the validity of her indigenous roots. The article goes on to mention that apparently Buffy has a doble ganger who resembles her in every way which has created all this confusion and confirms that the malicious rumors about her being a pretendian, have been grossly exaggerated. I am sure that Hymie Rubenstein will publish an article about this in the immediate future.

"These people were suffering terribly, mostly due to infectious diseases spread by Europeans, such as smallpox and tuberculosis, but also from malnutrition and even out and out starvation."
Readers here might find this interesting: Smallpox and many other afflictions were indeed gifts of the Europeans, but TB – maybe not. I hadn't realized this myself until recently.
<< Archaeologists have found signs of TB in the bones of a bison in Wyoming. They believe the bison lived more than 17,000 years ago (Centers for Disease Control). . . . Popular theory suggests that early Europeans brought TB to the Americas. However, a 2014 study found evidence to suggest that seals brought TB to America before any Europeans made contact with the Americas. >>

Knew I could count on you : )
Someone had to give the day some recognition.

The second of the above articles is particularly a propos of Igor's series.
