Dollarama steals Native Culture

I for one like to save my money and shop for bargains, so my steps take me to Dollarama to save a buck or two. Last week I ventured in my local Dollarama to get my usual stuff and to my shocked eyes I saw Native crafts made in China. To me this is so wrong and it takes away from the rightful creators of such items, the Native Community end of story. I asked the manager of the store why she was selling such stuff, her reply was ''it's for Canada Day and my reply'' and mine was '' Do you know this is very wrong to sell Native crafts that are not made by Native people and it's stealing their culture away from them''. I guess in today's society there are no true respect for Culture and Dollarama and others have proved it.
