does a renter tell the house owner what to do and how much they should pay the renter? NO. So why should we let the renters continue to bother our lands and what we do with it. this is a great move forward!

Oh good, now they can pay to operate the ferry. As a taxpayer why would I subsidize a ferry to a place we're not welcome?

Lands are given back to Ojibwa and Inuit and crown is excluded. Politicians can KEEP fooling Indigenous with SIGNING AGREEMENTS but There are over 1100 other Ojibwa and Inuit Nations. Government dont own the lands and cannot give lands they dont own. Each First Nations didnt have to fight For their lands, IT belongs to Them. Ojibwa Will take over That Politics likes IT or not. The civil cases does not give lands one AT a Time all the lands are transfered and Ojibwa Grand Chiefs and Inuit Grand Chiefs Will take care of each First Nations and what they ask For. Politics crimes and war crimes against humanity Gets Them abolished
