Land acknowledgment need to stop. Treaty land is not Indigenous land, on thevprairies anyway, it's crown land. Land acknowledgments give the uninformed the impression that some have a valid claim when they don't.
Permanent guilt is already leading to the collapse of civil society and open jingoism and anarchy. So it’s suicidal at the political level where we need a real country.
Brilliant article Melanie, thank you. Really appreciated your clear analysis on what is happening functionally under the soundbite veils of rhetorical masking. You shine a stark light on precisely what the ideology serves and that is the UNDRIP global agenda - the resource grab - abolishing of private property and dissolution of sovereign identity into Global Citizenship, with Indigenization used as the bludgeon and the trance through which to manipulate people into compliance.
Fantastic piece!
Thanks. It might upset a few
people, though.

Seems that the even the Crown feels their claim to the land is illegitimate seeing and the King himself engaged in the humiliation ritual.
