Some one did not read the Canadian Constitution or the bill of rights.
Tell us, oh, wise one, about the 'equal rights' in Gladue?
Whoops, I forgot that I singularly control the equality settings for every nation on the planet, including Canada. Let me just pop over to the control panel.
No one said you 'control it' But you are the one who seems to think we have it.
maybe do your homework before spouting lies and bullshit??
I never claimed Gladue, Canada has utopian equality, actually. I couldn't even point it out on a map. As another user pointed out, leftism ADVOCATES and works towards those ideals, which very clearly was what I was saying in context. If you had a functional frontal lobe, this might be an easier conversation for you. Maybe iron out the dent in your brain before trying to tackle big conversations, lil fella
Where did they say it's what we have, because to me it reads that those are what we're fighting for.
This includes indigenous peoples.
indigenous peoples in Canada already have more rights than actual Canadians.
What the hell are you on about?
How about the right to clean water?
You can have clean water when you stop tearing apart the water treatment plants for the resale value of the previous water treatment plant.
or , here's an idea, enter the 21st centruy and collect taxes to pay for it yourself, like the rest of the country's municipalities?
Or, maybe the chiefs can forgo new trucks every year and actually build infrastructure for their people?
It's hard to keep the sympathy when all I can see on the res is complete corruption.
if the tribes are "their own nation" then maybe start collecting taxes like every other nation on earth?
What gives them the authority to collect taxes in Canada? Only government's can do that.
Tribes are not nation-states like Canada is.
Interesting take, but in law Indigenous groups are effectively sovereign nations within Canada. They also have the authority to collect taxes within tribal lands.
"Tribes" are nations, governments and have full authority to collect taxes.
