It was hard to find work, there was racism, and they where kick out of there own homes.

Step-by-step explanation:

During the assimilation era, many Indigenous people were forced to leave reserves, which were often reclaimed by governments for housing and mining. Although life on the reserves was oppressive, it was difficult for Indigenous people to find work in the towns and cities due to the prevalent racism in wider society.
