I disagree and think that property ownership is the cornerstone of progress but no one asked me.

the whole idea of reserves is so antiquated, it just needs to finally go away. they've done nothing to help the people they were setup for and have been a magnet for rampant drug use, corruption, and a renewing cycle of poverty. any politician that finally has to balls to come out and say such, with a plan to phase the reserve system out and integrate the native population properly into mainstream Canadian society will get my vote
