I believe so. In speaking with the indigenous fellows at the healing lodges, I hear a disconnect from their history.
Oftentimes they leave the reserve and get into conflict with the law, and then there are some issues. When they finally start going to programs that are indigenous-related, speaking with the elders and learning about their culture, they take another mindset in terms of their offending. There are a lot who go out of the prison system and don't come back once they've made that connection with their culture.
