If this hits a paywall , here’s a relevant quote :
Radical perspectives on land ownership are not confined to Eby’s advisors. They are held by key elected members of his government as well.
In 2023, then-minister for mining Josie Osborne commented, “our approach to natural-resource development must be done in collaboration and partnership with the rightful owners of the land.”
Current Indigenous relations minister Spencer Chandra Herbert, in reference to 1.2 million acres of public land on the Sunshine Coast, has said, “if it’s (shíshálh Nation’s) land, they get to make decisions on it.”

Another B.C. NDP MLA, Rohini Arora, suggested in the legislature that non-Indigenous British Columbians are “settlers,” “colonizers,” and “uninvited guests,” to the applause of her colleagues.
perhaps these UNDRIP advocates need to feel some real pain..... Not the metaphorical kind.
These romantic narratives of struggle and oppression and victims smacks quite rightly of Marxist doctrine..... under the cloak of secrecy and liberal politics. Time to wake up.
Don't be too concerned about Osborne giving your house away to the natives, you need to be more worried that she's closing down access to the hospitals. Doctors and other health professionals are fleeing BC at an unprecedent rate since she took over as health minister. Her bullsh*t and word salads might work on some, but these are educated wise people who won't tolerate her deceptive and manipulative methods of operating.
The rightful owners of the land are Canadians… All of us together. It's time to get rid of this ridiculous self-righteous polarization. Us versus them only brings hostility.
