snowyday Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 A certain Indian apparently feels that the white man is not so much crazy as greedy. This chief was interviewed by the Sault St. Marie, Ont., Daily Star on the current uranium boom. He said: “200 or 300 years ago white man come to North Shore of Lake Superior. He take all the fur and give Indian string of beads. Then a few years later he cut down all big trees; build lumber mills. Soon all big trees gone—he go away. Few years later, he come back, build paper mill at Espanola, cut down all small trees. Nothing left on North Shore but rock. Now, by gosh, he comes back for rock.†1950 * * * * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
