[Food Secure Canada]

I am in the middle of reading The Inconvenient Indian 
<http://penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/93028/inconvenient-indian#9780385664226>. 
As a friend of mine said, it should be required reading for all Canadian 
students.

I believe in the future we are all going to be thanking our indigenous 
people for being the last line / first line of defence in protecting our 
province and country from at least some damage.
