I don't think Native Canadians should be given any special concessions simply because they first inhabited the land, CMV.

Native Canadians have been afforded many concessions by the government due to historical reasons. No taxes on reserves, free education, job privileges through affirmative action, scholarship priority, increased hunting and fishing rights, monetary payouts, etc. I feel as if the reasons they have been provided these things is now too far in the past to be a legitimate reason to be providing them anymore. The argument that Native Canadians have been exposed to trauma that makes these benefits necessary is outdated. I think it is well past time that the Canadian government cut these benefits and tried to put an end to this shameless victim mentality that hasn't seemed to actually help the situation at all. 

I may just be bitter because I am from Saskatchewan, but please try to change my view. I have grown up with white shame for what my ancestors did. One of my parents have also worked in the poorest neighbourhoods where I live (90% Native) and I feel as if it has skewed my view as well. I constantly see my parent taken advantage of and being made to feel guilty because she is white.

EDIT: While I now understand that my opinion is kind of harsh, I am still of the same opinion. Thanks everyone!

You are completely missing the main reason for the Treaty rights.  It isn't about social justice, preserving traditions, or guilt.  The Treaties are in effect because we promised that they would be, and that's it.  Breaking treaties is very bad for a government's reputation, no matter if it happened centuries ago or not.
