8:47 pm
nowadays the majority of the town's $23000.00 inhabitants and non-indigenous swedes . including mykonos el bag he finds it perplexing that sunny now have the right to walk hunting licenses. it would be very strange if you have more rides if you have been here a longer time how should we how should we handle people who come in now and moving to sweden from the problem areas around the world should we say that i have some rights but they don't tab. it's very important from a democratic view that we have to get the same rides. i think the problem is that people are stuck on that they have their own magic pictures of the people with their original people over the last over the
8:48 pm
traditional clothes walking with the reindeers of taking care of them but it is not true you know the sami 90 percent of the saami don't have more rights than i have and it just a small part of the sami or reindeer on earth. the 2020 crew gives the reindeer families the right to grant hunting licenses and incurious there are just 20. the day after the animals a crown together in the mountains is still today was sunday is also present with a camera. the main deed to put is ignited for sale i've already been sent off to the avatar the members of the sunny community turn up the remainder for their own private consumption.

8:50 pm
make many areas off limits. if you can look at our place up here it's a working place when we don't want people to be there because it's dangerous or this but her being there work what we are doing very attractive and like an ordinary industry we need to work with the reindeer because we made the move but the most of the people who are up here they are. they doing it for pleasure that's the difference. so if you compare pressure things against the work fixed quite easy for me. the times inside is also concerned about jobs swedish lapland is the country's most popular inventors distant nation turn of the interior seems almost doubled in the last a nice also because of the hunting possibilities. sandburg
