I have also heard many stories of Indigenous people having trouble renting a property.
Our democratically Government through positive discrimination provides assistance to people who are disadvantaged and/or have a history of being downtrodden, and that make me feel proud to be an Australian.

One type of discrimination does not justify another. There is no such thing as 'positive' racial discrimination. You are picking out one race and discriminating against all others.
This is a democracy, and as long as you aren't promoting harm, it is legal to support and practice certain kinds of racial discrimination.
You may be proud of this fact. I am not.
