There is also a certain degree of homophobia, but no more than in the states (which is Canadian slang for the United States, by the way...)

WOW, that is the understatement of the year so far...
In Saskatchewan, the racism put toward aboriginals is VERY BAD. The intolerance level here is staggering. Yes, I know natives that are great people, but in my own experiences, it has been a 2-way street. Natives hate "whitey" with vigour and passion. It is something that we are not proud of, and we don't like to talk about it. Hey, how about those Riders?
DO NOT MOVE TO SASKATCHEWAN IF YOU ARE ABORIGINAL. There are better places without the hassle. Seriously.
