While Canada treats indigenous people quite poorly, they actually have better protections than the EU has for its indigenous and minority populations (legally and institutionally). If Canada did join (which sounds bizarre to me), I would hope that the EU would meet the Canadian standard rather than see the Canadian standard drop down to EU level.
