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.

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.

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.
