Whelp this what many wanted, they just didn't know how far it would reach. This worked last with the Iroquois, and many groups. Now today it's just with blacks, Hispanics and Arabs. Canada doesn't have much gun violence but to deny a people who've been victim to hate especially when there's skeletons under the church? Great job.

This is such a complex issue. Who gets the right to decide what the laws are? The official answer is the politicians who represent the people. If you are indigenous and those politicians don't represent you, they represent the culture that genocided yours. If all that was true for you, would you feel bound by the laws?

Complex? They didn't need this to be enacted at all. The gun crimes that happened are through illegal means. So why punish everyone for the acts of the few and criminal? This is why many don't want to vote blue in their red states because of what's going on in Oregon, IL, and Washington. This needs more coverage especially with the animosity from the skeletons.
I can mention my background and how I don't feel those in power don't represent me, but that doesn't matter by their law they will enforce it as they please. This isn't the first time a similar thing was enacted on the natives of Canada either.
