I personally know alot of natives and alot of them get really upset about this and Oka etc. it gives them a bad image. In Caledonia, the supreme court has ruled on it and said it was not native land at this housing development. Why can't they respect rulings that are against them as well?
Another thing, The supreme court ruled that verbal, oral traditions handed down over generations had just as much of a legal standing as written land treaties. yes - you heard this correctly. And we wonder why we have these issues.
