lol if shit goes downhill theyll jsut resort to blaming the white man
they get too much dollar
currently we impose a dysfunctional form of government on these bands
@Coochie coo just say no, lol
The money goes to individuals
as a stipend
The thing is, if these bands ultimately want to convert to common law, private land claims actually become pretty easy to make.
yes, that is one of a few things I agreed with Harper, to make negotiations, money, etc... more transparent -- but of course that was pushed out as the white mans way of running things
if they don't then it should be seen as their own political failure
just as it is seen with any other nation
The only thing that peeves me are situations in which people in first world nations, especially having been brought here from 3rd world nations, pretend to be appealing to fairness when they want some form of compensation for historic ills.
@Undead Mockingbird Well, if it's concrete, it is payable and closable, if it is ambiguous, that is where you run into problems.
The net benefit they have received, by comparison to people in most parts of Africa, are so insurmountable as to make any such claims ridiculous.
If it is conceivably possible to continue fabricating debts from records, then sure, you're fucked.
If they have a personal, legal claim - fine. Let's get this over with and settle it.
There are limitations on everything in the common law, and there should be limitations just the same in these claims.
You can gain title to other people's land by inhabiting it in an obvious and overt way
The same is clearly true at the scale of countries.
@Undead Mockingbird what about a personal not-strictly-legal claim?
