How is giving land to the Natives a good start? If you read my post above...you will see an example of what is done with the land.

That was just one example, and you sound as if you really believe the rest of the 500 First Nations within Canada would do the same?
I guess most people just don't understand how the Native people of Canada are handcuffed by the government regarding treaty obligations to share the wealth of this land, Legal battles over landrights moving so slow it could take another hundred years to settle, honouring First Nations treaty and land rights by restoring their access to land and resources will greatly reduce the 40-60% of Native people living in poverty by creating jobs and self esteem within these communities. You don't seem to understand that Native people have a right to be included in decision-making that impacts their lives such as health care, employment, housing, safe drinking water and education. It's like you didn't even read the post of mine you just quoted.
