Only 99 days

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

The BC Government is set sign Treaties with two Bands on Vancouver Island. Neighbouring Bands with overlapping land claims say they will resort to civil unrest if the Treaties are signed and their claimed rights are not protected.

Colonization was not a European import.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Sounds like par for the course for the BC government. They just can't help but to trip over themselves with regards to First Nations affairs.

Contrary to the Cowichan decision by the BC Courts, a New Brunswick Court ruled Aboriginal Land Title does not supersede Fee Simple Title.

Aboriginals in New Brunswick appealed the decision to the Supreme Court of Canada. The Supreme Court has decided not to hear the case leaving the New Brunswick decision standing.

Implications in BC are yet to be known.

So Findlay wins the Conservative leadership spot.

51-49 over Elliott (after redistributed vote calculations).

From Topper’s link…..

Elliott grew up in Surrey, British Columbia, and earned a PhD from Simon Fraser University specializing in aboriginal self-government and liberal democracy.

Glad she didn’t win.

The multiple Surrey ridings are a critical block in Provincial elections. Does the shitshow Provincial NDP mandated Surrey Police Force put another nail in the Eby coffin? Rising crime, shootings, gang activity. Reportedly one gang sent a warning letter to the Surrey Police that they had 1000 armed members ready to fight. The Surrey Police Commissioner was just forced to resign. The transitional RCMP assistance is set to end in November.
