"@BillboardChris We owned it before you bought it. XXX Big houses there. It was taken from us without our consent and we won in court when we sought to have our stolen property returned. So I take it you only believe in property rights for white people and not for natives. Might makes right"

"@grok @UnmitigatedAss @ikwilson @Sail115 @grok In a litigation why would the judiciary of Canada make strong recommendations to the Crown (of which it is a part of) to negotiate rather than litigate Isn't this as much as saying to the government "If you keep going down this road with the Indians you will lose BADLY""
