slight difference with canada: we starved our native populations to death while the usa murdered theirs...we did steal some land, but most of the country was settled under treaties signed with the native populations who lived under legal protection of the government...many of those treaties were broken, but the native population *never* surrendered their rights and continued to insist that the government abide by the treaties that promised them rights to land, resources, and self-government...the treaty process is ongoing and many bands have already made final settlements including a small first nations group in my neighbourhood that was recently awarded several hundred acres of the most expensive real estate in canada plus $25 million
