They think they'll hamper the Manitoba economy? They represent about what 15% of the population. Do they control 15% of the Manitoban economy? Hardly, imo. They might have an impact on the lively-hoods of certain small business but they'll more likely hurt themselves more.

What a bunch of friggen maroons.

Oh, and why is Manitoba even involved in this? frick that. Let the feds deal with their problems...

When the indians can look after things without stealing the place blind, then they can take greater control I say, and not before, so that should take a while eh.

Wow I think I lost a few brain cells just reading the comments section in that article. I sometimes wish some of the lunacy gets published in the hardcopy daily for all to see just what kind of people lurk about in this city.
