I can get behind some of what you're saying here, but you are leaving out some very big details where it is actually Advantageous to be an Aboriginal in Canada. First of all, Aboriginals pay very little taxes. Aboriginals have the luxury of hunting and fishing where they want and when they want.  They do not pay taxes on gas, cigarettes and many other non essential items.  My cousin is half Aboriginal and all of her post secondary education was covered by the government due to her Métis status.  Aboriginal women are among the most sought after employees in Education and government as Liberal schools and organizations are incentivized to hire Native Canadians and or other minorities.  Yes we can look back and see all the horrible racism in our history just like many other "Civilized" societies but it is clear that in Canada there are many opportunities available to Aboriginals if they work hard enough and make it above the abuse and pervasive negative stereotypes of their Culture.
