To put it in a non First Nation's perspective, it's similar to the way elderly or the disabled can be treated; in a condescending manner where they are spoken to as incompetent children. bereft of cognitive ability. It should not come as a surprise to anyone, that based upon our national history, why these people can be sensitive. Sorry to say, but AC personnel have a history of being disrespectful and we have seen it play out so many times before, especially with those who are perceived as being in the lower end of the power spectrum.
