Body bags and Indians

Health Canada sent a bunch of extra body bags to the first nations reserve in Manitoba the other day.........much to the disgust of the Chief's........Federal Ministers and members of Parliament were quick to condem the delivery..........the Chief's have proclaimed that "They've given up on us"........unfortunately this is how the Abi's react to everything........"give us money"....."give us our land back"........"give us an education".........it's all about the "big give"............In this case the body bags were given as part of the pig flu emergency kits........when the flu shots are avaliable they will be given to the priority cases........and the Chiefs and close personal relatives will be getting their shots........living in a third world community...........and at high risk......they should be given the shots.......there will be deaths......an unfortunate side effect of the flu......and the need for body bags is also a sad reminder that there will be deaths.........sending them back and complaining that it was insensitive was a typical reaction........the reaction by Government was also a typical and politically correct way of saying it was wrong........having body bags avaliable is better than keeping your loved ones in zip lock baggies..........if they weren't sent the bags they would complain that they weren't sent the bags............there are no winners in a game of losers...
