Maybe it's not as big of an event in the rest of the world, or country even, but as the fastest growing section of Saskatchewan's population, young aboriginals are our best hope of a future other than Alberta-Lite.

Happy Aboriginal Day!

So how does one celebrate the day?

I tend to confuse Aboriginal people with Albino people. My sister has an albino friend.

Are there any aboriginal albinos?

Yes - aboriginal just means the original inhabitants of an area, used when a separate ethnic group is now dominant, I believe. Albinos appear, as far as I know, in all races - certainly there are black African albinos (such as singer Salif Keita) as well as white ones.
