Reply to comment by CaptainCAAAVEMAAAAAN in Sask. teen sentenced for killing his pregnant mom by nosotros_road_sodium

In Northern Saskatchewan, yes. Very much so.

Even in the rest of the province, it's pretty bad. Saskatchewan has the highest rates of domestic violence, child abuse and intravenous drug use in the entire country. There is an extremely unfortunate overlap with the fact the province also has the highest Native population in the country. You can draw your own conclusions from that.

You are absolutely correct and when people talk about how genocide is still ongoing stuff like this is what they mean.
