I'm saying that the path forward is to eliminate barriers between the people living within the borders of Canada. My reasoning for this is that these barriers are no longer beneficial, regardless of why they were setup in the past. Barriers (or their close cousins incentives), based on race are segregationist. Ergo, any argument for the status quo, even if that argument involves treaties, is also segregationist.

Again, it's the vast majority of Indigenous people who would happily have the treaties abolished and their land returned to them. It's "us" who don't want that.
