Fun fact. The Tsawassens intervened against the Cowichan, for perfectly respectable reasons, mainly a worry about fishing rights implications. The fun part: nobody in Delta is worried about their private property because the Tsawassens concluded a treaty a few years ago. They relinquished their title underlying private property, and all the flags are still flying on government buildings in Delta, and people get on with their lives. It'sthe British and Canadian way of settling tgese matters. There is no "unceded land" to argue about.

I remember the Tsawassen treaty signature because some of Robert’s friends belonged to the Tsawassen Nation. And you’re right, no one lost their sh1t about private property.

The outrage junkies are addicted to the despair they manufacture.
