The conservative voices vilifying the Cowichan decision, arguing it removes property rights is full of contradictions.

The court established that the Cowichan tribe proved they had exclusively occupied Lulu Island for generations, -> "owned"

In arguing against the Cowichan, conservative voices are saying government should have the right to take control of land who's use and ownership is established and obvious. and use if for their own gain?

Isn't this precisely the opposite of conservative philosophy?

The property rights noise is a pathetic effort to game ignorance anger prejudice and division for political gain.

Interesting way to look at it. The conservative and right wing agitators are arguing for the government to have the right seize people land and sell it to someone else.

@sleepy62 @Mannanan Their arguing only white peoples deserve property rights, gives government the ability to dismiss all the constitutional and treaty rights that 1st Nations have in Canada.

Could this be their ultimate goal?

Probably. The whole conservative thing in Canada seems to have devolved into a white supremacist movement.

@sleepy62 @Mannanan Yes and at the same time clinging to the idea that this is “law & order”, “rule of the law” while shouting outrage when justice says your ideas go against the law and fail

@pinhman Just block that shitbucket colonizer. He's been pulling #MapleMAGA crap here for awhile. Suffocate that fucker from your attention span.
They were blocked by most of us POC folks for being super racist. Do not give these trolls extra energy. They thrive on ANY attention. Starve them.
