  • I just didn’t happen to know about it until my aunt told me a third cousint did a family tree recently and identified a few distant relatives who are indigenous, so it was interesting for me is all. I knew I was partly Quebecois but I didn’t know about the Habitant part either.

    It’s just really visible now. I looked at r/Canada a few times and I’m just horrified at what they say. I’m not saying it wasn’t present but they’re normalizing saying deport people.



  • I am the teensiest tiniest bit Indigenous Canadian, like maybe a toenail’s worth, because some of my ancestors are Habitants from Quebec from the days of Upper and Lower Canada. The rest of me is Irish and English, so yeah. I get it. I’m sorry if that’s worth anything.

    The racism is SO bad here now. It always existed, but it’s right out in the open now because of immigration numbers and also efforts at indigenous reconciliation, in that racists think we don’t need to do that. It’s honestly getting scary.
