    The masters student at the University of Minnesota Duluth said she has anecdotal reports...


    Lord knows the strongest type of evidence is anecdotal evidence. If these people are being "sold" or who are they being bought from? And how come no one has reported all of this to the RCMP?

    are being sold or are exchanging sex for alcohol, a place to stay, drugs, money and so forth.,
    That's called prostitution and happens all over the world.

    Stark said the sex trade on ships has been going on for generations, and includes Indigenous women from Canada.
    In other words it's women of all ethnicities. Why single out native women?

    That report included interviews with 105 indigenous women in Minnesota who have been trafficked in the sex trade.
    And not one report to police about human trafficking? In BC we had a man be convicted of human trafficking for mistreating his nanny. Prosecution wants him to get 5 - 6 years. If a Filipino nanny with temp status in Canada can file a complaint, why not Canadian Indigenous people?

    IT's the same with the claims that 100's of native women were raped by the RCMP in northern BC. Not one official complaint. I can understand the reluctance of these women to file a complaint, but now that they have researchers and organizations behind them, surely they would have the required support to do so. But, after the breathless headlines and 15 minutes of fuss, nothing more is heard.

    In other news there's strong anecdotal evidence that a number of poorly educated white people from rural regions of Europe and North America have been abducted and anally probed by aliens. Must be true, eh?

    anecdotal reports
    :roll:

    When you talk with or about ships, sailors and anecdotal reports you know exactly what you're gonna get. A tall tale embellished upon to make the story sound more entertaining which, is why all Canadian Naval Tales start with the preface of the teller saying "This is no shit" which goes to ensure that the listener knows the tales are factual as opposed to some bullshit "fairy tale".

    This just in, there is strong anecdotal evidence that shows some members of CKA tie pillows to their bums.
