Indigenous people repeatedly get left out of Canada's so-called democratic processes (which they, of course, have been forced into in the first place), and at the same time are told by so many people that it's unacceptable if they choose not to vote.

Read the conservative platform now. It’s brutal. The Indigenous affairs section, yes, but literally all of it.

Promises to do soooo much that violates Indigenous rights and consent.

Also ‘our Indigenous people’? Again? Did you get an Indigenous person to read any of this over??

Outside of the reconciliation section this is what is highlighted.

Remember the rest of the platform (which deals heavily with international presence and the economy) becomes extremely challenged if Indigenous nations don’t consent to their vision of « economic growth at home » not surprising
