The aboriginal in Canada (how does media, government, workforce and public view aboriginals) and what are the advantage or disadvantage of being an aboriginal in Canada?

Introduction

According to the census in 1996 in Canada, there were just over 1.1 million Aboriginal people, and it is important to note that since the last census in 1991 their number increased by about 100,000. The bulk of the so-called registered Aboriginal population (about 800,000 people) are the Indians (69%), mestizo (mixed descendants of the families of Indians and Europeans) - they are about 26% of the total aboriginal population - and the Eskimos, called here by the Inuit (5%) . These three main groups of Aboriginal people are defined by the constitution as the original inhabitants of Canada, which is here taken in a country of immigrants, called "First Nations" (First Nations) (Dickason, Calder, 2006).

Resettlement of indigenous peoples in the country can be seen from the following data: 17.7% of the indigenous population lives in the province of British Columbia, almost as many (17.5%) - in Ontario. These two provinces are the abode of most Indians. Prairie Provinces (Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatchewan) are home to about 45% of the total indigenous population, with the largest group of Métis living in Alberta and Manitoba. In Quebec, home to nearly 9%, and in all the Atlantic provinces - 5% of the Aboriginal people of Canada are almost as many - in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, less than 1% - in the Yukon. Although it is in the past, representing the administrative division of the three federal territories, indigenous peoples constitute a significant, if not most of the population (e.g., Nunavut, more than 85% of the population is Inuit) (Dickason, Calder, 2006).

This essay is about Aboriginal and the media. It follows the topic by extending discussion to cover the role of government and media in viewing and treating aboriginals in Canada. The issues of aboriginals as a workforce in Canada are considered. The advantages and disadvantages of aboriginal's communities in Canada are discussed in the end.

Discussion

Canada is a country inhabited by various Native American groups. Most of those who belong to these are Inuit and Métis. In addition there are the First Nations living in Canada. According to the Canadian constitution of 1982, these three groups that are officially recognized, as such together they are the Inuit, Métis and First Nations.  Among the most First Nations, more than 600,000 Canadians count themselves among them. More than 70 languages ??are spoken by them, indicating the different cultures and tribes, which are among the First Nations pulled together. They have their own flag, which is similar to the Canadian. Just like this, it has the red-white-red stripes curve, but rather of the oak leaf, the face of the Indian Chief (Dickason, Calder, 2006). 

The Inuit are the smallest aboriginal group. There are only brief 45,000 people belonging to ...
