        That’s something I can’t understand. Most of my family back in Alberta would vote to join US and have been saying it for years. Why don’t they just move there? It’s not hard

        I think it’s all a boo hoo victim mentality to avoid personal accountability. Those people’s lives suck because they are dumb, not because of Ottawa, lol

          They’ve been saying for years they would vote for Canada to be part of the USA? I had no idea this retardation predated orange Hitler. Tell them an American said they’re dumb as hell for wanting to join them.

            There’s been chinwagging forever… Except that unlike the Qubecois they lack the ability to actually get their shit together to organize for it. Instead all energy is spent attempting to implement a chisto-fascist takeover of all Canada to make everyone as dumb as they are.

          it’s all a boo hoo victim mentality to avoid personal accountability.

          This is the nucleus of the conservative mindset. This right here. This is the DNA, the required personality trait, the price of admission to the conservative club.

          1000% correct, they would rather whine about Ottawa fucking them in some way then actually doing work to change their material outcomes. It comes from intellectual laziness if you ask me.

          Just to pre-empt where this is going, sure, the Earth was here before all of us. But unlike the Clovis people, First Nations are still here and suffering from what my ancestors did, which is why that leads to misunderstanding when emphasised.

            Not that I advocate it, but another way of writing what you just said is, “This whole treaty thing wouldn’t be a problem if we had just gone with full genocide.”

              I mean, it wouldn’t. It’s just that genocide is bad, so that’s not really preferable, then or now.

      There is. The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled multiple times on Indigenous land rights and, for the most part, have ruled in favour of the treaties with First Nations communities and people.

      Smith doesn’t have a leg to stand on here.

        And that’s why native rights continue to be attacked even after recent surprising wins. The current court thinks treaties are bullshit and native rights have been getting fucked for a bit now.
