A demographic group that is living in severe poverty conditions would be the Aboriginals in Canada. Aboriginals carry a long history with Canada by being the earliest and first inhabitants of the country. They created their own traditions, social system and language in the unity of their group set in a peaceful place, however, their traditions “were altered or even taken away upon the arrival of European settlers” (Aboriginal Issues). They were suddenly disregarded and suppressed as their customs and lands were cruelly taken away from them. Furthermore, they were forced to move into reserved areas in isolation “[w]ith no planning, infrastructure or economy set up, Aboriginal people were restricted to small tracts of land” (Aboriginal Issues).
