Rules
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage: lemmy.ca
My understanding is that this ruling was inevitable, and that no one informed on the issue should be pretending to be shocked, most of all our provincial government.
It will get further refined as the process unfolds, but there's no getting around the well-established fact that the BC government illegally sold that land.
I also think it's a positive that this is shaking people up: we need more pressure on all levels of government to get treaties negotiated.
But isn't all of BC on none treaty land. So what right do the Natives have to it? I mean like it or not we live in a world where might makes right.
