Gee, I thought Ahenakew was bad...

Here's another ugly story....
Roseau River reserve Chief Terrance Nelson released a statement to the media saying he doesn't agree with Ahenakew's views but condemns what he sees as Jewish control of Canadian media. He says the media write articles that belittle native people.

"Articles appear regularly in newspapers filled with hatred of natives," states the release. "Will there be a dramatic rise in hatred of Jews amongst native people? As a chief, I say 'Yes there will be.''"

In the letter, Nelson singled out CanWest Global Communications; its owners, Winnipeg's Asper family; and their newspaper, the National Post as "the voice of Jews." He accused CanWest of adding to Canadians' animosity towards native people.

"Media not only ignores the killing of natives, it helps to justify the killings."

Nelson says he will not condemn Ahenakew but calls him a "frustrated [and] angry" old man looking for a scapegoat.
Where does all this hate come from? Nelson should be fired....
