Native lands and Wal-mart
An interesting story on the latest Wal-mart victory. The most annoying part of the deal is the incredible exemption from our overbearing government that natives have.
This month, however, in Canada, Wal-Mart hit pay dirt. Two native bands in B.C. agreed to host a Wal-Mart on their traditional lands. On reserve land, there are no unions, pay equity provisions or environmental regulations. Native law prevails. On native land, rezoning applications are unnecessary.
Business would be so much more vibrant without the strict government controls the rest of us plebes have to suffer under.
Two tier health care? Heck, we’ve got two-tier citizenship here in Canada.

It’s actually no secret (at least the international law enforcement community) that Canada is now the capital of mail and phone fraud.
The majority international US, UK and Austrailian phone and mail scams originate from Canada.
CTV’s W-FIVE has actually produced several shows on this very startling reality. They are quite interesting to watch.
