This short video clip touches on some very informative statistics and data that show how the Indigenous children´s poverty compares to non-Indigenous children, how the income gap is 30% lower for Aboriginal people in Canada, how 1 in 4 children in poverty are of an Indigenous background, how 73% of the First Nations water systems are contaminated, and overall how the poor socio-economic status of the First Nations people affect their everyday life, with very little to no funding nor aid by the government. It includes various comparison charts to show the differences between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples of Canada.
