@cohkka I see. I wasn't aware the history of the Sami in Finland was so different from their history over here. Not that they haven't been terribly mistreated in Norway, mind you, but what you describe sounds unlike anything I've read or heard of here. I suspect Norwegian Sami may have benefited from the simple fact that there weren't very many Norwegians in the Sami heartland until relatively (in a historical sense) recently.
