As for giving the land back - they were conquered - the land should have just been taken. Just like the Danes did with England, attack, govern, let the populace integrate.

You must admit, though, that your policy does dovetail very nicely with what's beneficial for "white people" and their tax money. To most Natives I imagine that this would look like yet another example of Canada screwing them over.
For those who say the treaties need to be ripped up, I'm curious as to how you would go about integrating Natives into Canadian society, considering where they are now and how many Natives may not be pleased with the turn of events. Most plans I read about seem to suggest that cutting them off is all that's required to fix the problem.
