<p>Morris Bates is a Canadian Aboriginal artist hailing from the Shuswap Indian Reservation in British Columbia, Canada.&nbsp; From these humble beginnings, Bates rose to become one of the most successful Elvis impersonators in the entertainment industry, headlining in Las Vegas for all of 10 years.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Following this phase of his career, Bates returned to Canada and took a job as Aboriginal Liaison with the Vancouver Police Deparment.&nbsp; One of the programs he ran in this position was &quot;Reality Check&quot; where he would take at-risk Aboriginal youth and give them a tour of the mean streets of Vancouver&#39;s downtown east side, showing them where they might end up if they weren&#39;t careful with their lives.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>In all, a remarkable story!</p>
