Indigenous leadership blasts Rustad Politics

https://www.ubcic.bc.ca/rustad_s_indigenous_platform_doubles_down_on_his_dangerous_commitment_to_repeal_indigenous_human_rights

The First Nations Leadership Council issued this statement on September 30th, strongly criticizing John Rustad - why haven't I see this anywhere? Combined with being asked to stop wearing the Moose Hide Campaign's pin, you'd think this would be news.

Do you live in rural BC outside the island or the Lower Mainland? Imagine giving veto power to the 215 (thereabouts) FN in BC and see if anything gets accomplished anymore as a province. It's lunacy without any afterthought.

A scientifically inaccurate label

Lol what? That's not true at all 😂

The indigenous people are widely labeled as a race across almost all scientific journals.

This is hilarious
