That is the whole idea. Sorry that it happened and a committment that he would not do the same and pledge that he would try to embrace aboriginal culture more for the benifit of maintaining the heritage.
It's not the same thing. Just because I'm not pleased that it happens doesn't mean that I feel they are deserving of an apology from me or anyone from this generation. The context of the word sorry is very important.

Not really. I don't know of a lot of cases where the employee would be in much of a negotiating position upon entering a job (ie when the contract would be signed). It's still the same with AWAs you have the alternative to go elsewhere. If people are taking up the jobs then it can't be all that bad. You'll notice that since AWAs have been introduced the amount of jobs in Australia has risen, which personally I think is a success for the implementation of the legislation.

I live cricket pretty much, but the forum nick comes from my actual name not Matthew Hayden as I think you're suggesting
