There’s One Too Many D’s In That Headline

Aboriginal men murdered at higher rate than aboriginal women

Between 1980 and 2012, 14 per cent of female murder victims with a known ethnicity were aboriginal, far exceeding their 4 per cent share of the female population, according to Statistics Canada.
But 17 per cent of male murder victims were also aboriginal during that time. In total, nearly 2,500 aboriginal people were murdered in the past three decades: 1,750 male, 745 female and one person of unknown gender.
[…]
The RCMP found that 105 aboriginal women were missing for at least 30 days as of last November in cases where the reason for their disappearance was deemed “unknown” or “foul play suspected.” StatsCan does not keep track of missing persons, and the RCMP declined to compile statistics on missing aboriginal men.

  1. .
    *YAWN*
    I want to know how many anvils has the Roadrunner dropped on the Coyotes head over the years. That is way more interesting. This other abo stuff … depressing.
    .

  2. “…one person of unknown gender.” That corpse must have been really messed up.
    Mock New York Times headline: WORLD TO END TOMORROW. WOMEN, MINORITIES HARDEST HIT.

  3. I can understand Harper’s reluctance on this issue as it will only give more distorted statistics to the aboriginal grievance industry. The reason I say distorted is due to the fact that police forces do not track the race or ethnicity of the perps who commit the homicides. If they did you will find that a large percentage of the perps killing aboriginals, are the aboriginals themselves. Numerous researchers have openly complained about this data suppression as it is not deemed politically correct or relevant to name the ethnicity of the killers.
    I suppose that aboriginals tearing themselves their own new assholes does not resonate well with socio/economic narrative story of the media and Bob Rae types who profit from it.

  4. This is interesting.
    Why these statistics?
    Why are there those that are kept and those that are ignored?
    There is no doubt that those that are kept, are for the purpose of social engineering.
    Those statistics that are ignored, sort of take care of themselves and the life goes on.
    Apparently, there is nothing to be gained by social engineering perpetrators.
    As though there was something to be gained by those statistics that are found to be of use to the social justice engineers.
    Maybe there is some good coin to be made there.
    How else would those that went to school for a long time justify their existence?
    How unfair.
    Heh.

  5. Pass a law saying that aboriginals can not associate with other aboriginals, that would clear up a lot of destruction and death in the native community.

  6. “…the RCMP declined to compile statistics on missing aboriginal men.”
    There are certain memes that should be pushed and certain memes that should be suppressed. Nothing to see here, move along folks.

  7. So does that mean that racially determined, federal entitlement, apartheid ghettos are not good examples of the multicultural mosaic? Who would have ever guessed?

  8. Maybe we could dump boiling water on our heads (ice water if already taken) or maybe we could wear black and blue shirts (pink shirts are already taken) or maybe we could wear black ribbons (all the other colours are taken) maybe we could grow our hair long (shaving our heads is already taken) or maybe we could have public inquiry which is just one other form of slacktivism. Hey I’ve got it why don’t we legalize drugs so the native women don’t have to engage in high risk lifestyles and can peacefully die with a needle in their arm like all good liberal victims are supposed to. I sometime wonder if the average liberal is capable of tying his/her own shoes what with the lack of logic employed by them.
    As I read this morning – You can lead a progressive to logic but you can’t make him think.

  9. If only Native leaders had the intelligence and perseverance of Wile.E.Coyote.
    Future Prime Minister Justin Trudeau,Canader’s man who will still the Rising waters and calm the stormy seas, says that Harper guy,(who must be somebody important as the MSM Party always refers to him as Harper,but never explains who he is or what he does) is ”out of touch” on Aboriginal issues,and should call for another taxpayer funded waste of money known as an ”Inquiry”.
    Way to go Justin, already into deflection as a way of governing!
    If there IS an Inquiry,I will work for said Inquiry for less than a thousand bucks a day,plus expenses, far less than the political hack or retired Judge,(read: political hack with a law degree)will.

  10. As I have said elsewhere, if there is a government to account for this specific case, it is the Manitoba NDP……..of course the media protects its socialist brethren…..

  11. Not to overstate the obvious, but aren’t younger population cohorts typically more strongly associated with the consequences of risky behaviour than old people? I seem to recall being even much more of an idiot in the past (when I was young) than I am now (currently older than dirt).
    With that in mind, I note that TD economics notes this demographic gem about Aboriginal populations in Canada:
    “In the 2006 Census, the median age of the Aboriginal population – the age where exactly one-half of the population is older and the other half is younger – was 27 years old. Five years later in 2011, the median age for Aboriginals is only a touch higher at 28 years old.”
    “This compares with a median age of 41 for the non-Aboriginal population. Inuit had a median age of 23, making them the youngest of the three Aboriginal groups. The median age of First Nations people was 26 years old, followed by Métis at 31.”
    Source: http://www.td.com/document/PDF/economics/special/sg0513_aboriginal_nhs.pdf
    Just wait until all the European descendants start having kids again. Then they’ll have to put up with as much Government “help” as the Aboriginal peoples have to put up with right now.

  12. Well, as somebody who has been labelled a racist since before God even invented them – all I can say is…no, there ISN’T anything to see here.
    Keep up the good work, you first nations freeloaders!

  13. All I know is they find an awful lot of dead aboriginal Women & others in fields surrounding Edmonton.

  14. If the RCMP have declined to compile statistics of one missing group’s sex, while compiling the numbers of those that are female, I can only guess that this doesn’t suit their purposes.

  15. We don’t need no FN inquiry.
    The RCMP did a comprehensive study.
    Aboriginal women are usually killed by spouses and acquaintances, almost exclusively other aboriginals.
    Those who are not, are almost always involved in high-risk lifestyles.
    In short, the broken reserves are producing broken people.
    An inquiry would only serve those who are already living off their victim status and sleazy politicians for political gain.

  16. News flash …. Indians embrace crime and violence while liberals remain terminally stupid.
    Must be “Harper’s” fault eh?

  17. In 1991 up in Yellowknife, I shared a hospital room with a guy after I had a biopsy. He was there because his girlfriend (Dene Indian) and her sister stabbed him all over his torso while he was passed out drunk. I went home later that day to my gorgeous, red-headed, Scots-Irish Maritimer girlfriend…and counted my blessings.

  18. While I yield to no-one in my contempt for the Manitoba NDP, I’d like to point out that that the Federal Government’s point man on these issues is former drunk motorcycle driver and pride of New Brunswick Bernard Valcourt. That should demonstrate how seriously these issues are taken by the Conservatives (for whom I have voted) .

  19. “First Nations Freeloaders?” Excuse me? I’m of European descent, and I can out-freeload anybody on this blog. Including you, short pants.

  20. And that’s why one should think before speaking.
    Direct social service help is thru the provincial government.
    Not the feds…..ever….
    And the girl was already making her way thru the NDP’s flawless system.
    After going thru the native reserve system, and all the dysfunction that exists there.
    And I just dont see where the feds fall in the blame game, except for the deranged of the left and the pammy palmeteers of the world. The reserve culture is what wrecks most natives before they get past the teenage years.

  21. “political hack or retired Judge,(read: political hack with a law degree)will.”
    No.Read political whore. Actually,they are worse then whores.At least a whore makes money,and sends her/his customer away satisfied.Only with pscyhopathic politicions can that be screwed up.

  22. The body of Tina Fontaine, 15, was found stuffed in a bag and submerged in a Winnipeg river.
    Police are treating the 15-year-old’s death as a homicide.
    That is some serious sleuthing there. Top. Men.

  23. The chain of responsibility goes from the girl’s Parents,to the Band government to the Provincial government with possibly Winnipeg social services involved,but the Federal Government has nothing to do with it, as you said.
    But anything that can be turned into an attack on Harper is fair game for the media Party and their Native activist friends.
    I don’t know how Indian governments work in Manitoba, but here in B.C. several Bands also have their own,Indian run Social Services Ministry, ie Chief Ernie Crey’s Chilliwack Band,and the Nisgaa up by Prince Rupert.
    You probably remember when a couple of years back, some kids died while being looked after by the Chilliwack Band Indian Social Services. The excuses that were trotted out were quite amazing, but NO Indian was ever at fault.
    We could waste millions on another Inquiry,and the only people who would benefit are the lucky chosen ones who get to sit on the commission and make big money for a few months or years.

  24. Interesting story and related to this issue
    “All we are trying to do is preserve, not only culture and language and identity, but who we are as a people. Those days of incorporating others into our society, I won’t say [are] over, but [they need] to be controlled by us, and not by outside entities,”

    If you have ever had close relations with natives, as I have, and I’m not talking about participating in a pre-arranged meeting or media event, you will have likely encountered this
    racism in a extremely overt manner.
    That is why white people cannot adopt natives.
    That is why foster parents of aboriginal heritage are given preference over others.
    AND that is very likely a major contributing factor to that young girl’s death.
    I went through a nasty court battle with the natural mother of two young girls. They denied her custody.
    The court decided that dear old dad was the best thing for them because he had gone through rehab and was living on the reserve and was in a stable relationship.
    It was BS. The children were apprehended from his care 6 months earlier because he went on a cheque bender and a neighbour stopped by four days later. They were aged 8 and 10. They were alone. The neighbour called Child Services.
    We thought that getting custody would be a slam dunk. We were wrong. It was the start of a horror show.
    Every step of the way, her family, his family, her band, and Alberta Child Services threw up roadblocks.
    We were told outside court that while she was living with a white man, she would never get custody if dad objected.
    An inquiry into the institutionalized racism that is prevalent in our laws would do much more to help native women than the proposed inquiry. This inquiry in just a shakedown by the usual suspects, promoted by those who embrace the ‘the racism of lower expectations’.
    The USA has ghettos, we have reserves.
    The USA has Obama and Sharpton, we have Justin and Palmater.
    It is ironic(and sad)that people who pride themselves on being nations are asking for the nation of Canada to figure out why their women are missing, murdered, and messed up.

  25. The most racist people I’ve met are the first residents; they think that makes it their land and everyone else can just leave their trucks, snowmachines, houses, and power saws and Fkuc Off back to where they came from.

  26. I like to call them First Welfare Recipients.
    “the RCMP declined to compile statistics on missing aboriginal men.”
    Damn straight! How can they collect their monthly Treatie Checks if they’re officially off the muster roll?

  27. Oh, for sure, DanBC – provinces have the lead. Except for the on-reserve stuff. There are people in the federal civil service who have spent their entire careers on treaty negotiations, on-reserve services/housing, and federal/provincial/territorial/first nations stuff.
    Which, again, shows how seriously this is treated at the federal level – nobody expects this stuff will be “finished,” ever. One can expect to have a full career in the federal service, even starting now, if one specializes in first nations issues.
    And maybe you’ll disagree with me, but I continue to assert that no-one in the federal government takes this seriously to the point of wanting to solve it. And this has real-world effects, even on individuals. As you note in your comments on the reserve system.

  28. I agree, however I must point out your blatant racism.
    How dare you insinuate that all this professional parasites feasting upon the taxpayer and the indians, should be dismissed?
    They have multigenerational careers to support.
    And any criticism of their activities is always racist.
    According to our Kleptocrats.
    Local chief up here was calling out Indian and Northern Affairs, they promise $10 million for a native need, the dept funnels off $9 million for their help and then conditionally hands over $10,000 per band to help.
    Next year they say, but we gave you guys $10 million toward solving that.
    The people who gave the world the Apartheid system, because we are so kind, will never willingly give up the pleasure of the racism of low expectations.
    Which is fully functional in Canadian Courts and probably the major cause of these murdered women.
    The festering sore that is our native industry is another tool our Progressives use to destroy rule of law and civil society.
    Doubt this?
    Where is Bob Rae lurking now ?

  29. We have an Aboriginal male in our town, who is such a bitch…. he’s banned from the Bingo Hall.
    No I’m not kidding.

  30. The body of Tina Fontaine, 15, was found stuffed in a bag and submerged in a Winnipeg river.
    Police are treating the 15-year-old’s death as a homicide.

    No, no, no.. she’s just pinin’ for the reserve. Teenage aboriginals prefer kippin’ in a bag in a river. Beautiful plumage!
