THE state government has asked Victorians if they would support Anzac Day being expanded to recognise Aborigines who were killed fighting white settlers in the past.

The Sunday Herald Sun can reveal that Premier Daniel Andrews’ department has surveyed people to see if the so-called “frontier wars” should be marked at the nation’s most important war commemoration event.

A copy of the report by the Department of Premier and Cabinet said that while Victorians felt they had a good understanding of what Anzac and Remembrance days stand for, “they also struggle to articulate what these events mean”. Revelations about the survey follow continuing attacks on Australia Day, with some protest groups calling it “invasion day” and agitating for the date to be changed to take into account indigenous sensitivities.

Would not be many veterans from either side left to march from those invasion day wars.In fact none I would imagine.
