The Chippewas of Northern Wisconsin continue to experience a peculiarly American form of apartheid, characterized by segregation, discrimination, cultural imperialism, and everyday violence. While the blatant stigmatization, disempowerment, and violence reached its modern day zenith in the spear fishing conflict of the 1980s and 1990s, ongoing patterns of racism and violence remain embedded in the culture. The purpose of this paper, then, is to explore the ways in which contemporary patterns of oppression continue to shape the climate in which anti-American Indian violence occurs in this particular region.
That's something co-written in 2005 by Barbara Perry, the Ontario professor Eid quotes for his horrifying statistics.

Perry's statistics may be correct, but I tend to doubt anything asserted by anyone who uses phrases like "cultural imperialism."
But that's just me.
You're picky that way, my little hegemonist.
I'm sure her stats are correct, if you accept her definition of rape. I'm guessing for the purposes of her research, feeling icky the next morning might qualify you as a rape victim.
So then the question becomes, why is the U.S. attorney flogging bad statistics?
We are not joking about FBI. We are also not appreciating your jokes about Security Minister. Security Minister has made a note of your jokes, and is adding this information to his report. Now, just show us where moose and squirrel are hiding and no one is getting hurt.
