Almost no Canadian is responsible for the residential school system or any other atrocity. Why is it that the elites commit these crimes and then their future decendants "repent" by punishing the common folk for their granddaddy's actions?
That's what the rule of law looks like. Promises were written down and then ignored.
And the descendants of the people who made the promises have lived a good life as a result of the broken promises. If you're found with stolen goods you usually have to give them back even if it wasn't you who stole them.
Speaking generally they aren't asking for their stuff back but they do want to negotiate something fair.
You seem to think the First Nations have received more than their share, when in fact the courts have been firmly on their side on the big issues. You would probably say you believe in the rule of law but you're demonstrating what The Eagles called a "Frail grasp of the big picture".
