We can denounce the horrible shit that people have done in the past and correct the wrongs that continue to happen while also making indigenous people front and centre of how we approach our national identity, especially when it comes to the connection we have to the land that we live on seeing how indigenous people's cultures are by and far the most attached cultures to the land which we live on.

I respect treaty rights and the right for First Nations have regarding self-determination, and there should be more efforts out there to help give proper reconciliation to the people we've historically harmed who have more right to this land than anybody else.

In Edmonton for example, while there is absolutely more that needs to be done, especially when it comes to helping indigenous people directly through social services and the likes, I do appreciate that the efforts for reconciliation have been made such as the renaming of city wards to Cree names, renaming Dan Knott Junior High to Kisêwâtisiwin due to Knott's very likely connections to the KKK, and renaming the Oliver community to Wîhkwêntôwin because of Frank Oliver's racist efforts and attitudes towards indigenous people like the Papaschase as well as Black immigrants.

We are leaving the very people who hold the richest culture relating to our land behind, and it is absolutely inexcusable that we continue that pattern, to which we should hold the government to account.

Edit: Looking at the modlog for you and the absolutely vile things you've said about people, I'm just not going to engage any further.
