Stephen Harper's Margaret Thatcher premise on Tina Fontaine, 15-year-old aboriginal murder victim

Margaret Thatcher: “There is no such thing as society” (October 31, 1987)

Stephen Harper: “We should not view this as a sociological phenomenon.  We should view it as a crime.” (August 21, 2014)

Note: according to RCMP statistics over 1000 aboriginal women have been murdered in Canada in the period from 1980 to 2012 (Globe and Mail, Editorial, Saturday August 23 2014, p. F9)
