Decolonize the New Indian Agent: Bernard Valcourt

Meet the new face of federal power tasked with managing “the Indian Problem”. We couldn’t cover up those eyes…we needed you to see his particular wild, drunken glare of Conservative crazy first.

Valcourt steps into his new role of Aboriginal Affairs minister, filling the disgraced shoes of former AANDC Minister John Duncam, with the appropriate Harper credentials:

1. “Veteran right-wing politician”

2. Former Associate Minister of National Defence

Because we all know right wing militants and the Armed Forces are the only way Settler Colonial states know how to deal with Indigenous issues.

Expect even less negotiating and more strong-arm PC tactics to force native complicity and consent.
