Last year, I went to nimaamaa’s rez(North western Ontario), and somebody took my camera and took pictures of the prices of food. I thought it would be interesting to post them here. Whenever somebody assumes that people who live in reserves “have it great”, I always think back to how high the prices of food is; Food is damn expensive in the rez.

And the reason the federal government isn’t subsidizing and absorbing the cost of the food prices is because….?

Because the Indians are supposed to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. We can’t coddle them.

Shit, son…
