It isn't bait, colonialism is a process that is both local and global. There is legitimate value in discussions surrounding settler colonialism.
this is because colonialism is up held through physical and
discursive force. Colonialism on Vancouver island and Isreal are brokered through British involvement, these are processes which borrow from one another.
The mechanism that is most revenant is Deterritorialization;
the process by which a social relation, called a territory, has its current organization and context altered, mutated or destroyed.
The arguments that you make about rightful land ownership based on cultural rights are the same discursive forces that impact how colonialism is experienced in Canada as well as in the middle east.
