What hollow, if not fully disingenuous sentiment.
As I wrote in @BeatNorthern: What does it say of our unity, let alone our sovereignty, when Premier David Eby and his government refer to the province as “stolen lands” and “unceded territory?”

Canada is the greatest nation on earth. I am proud to celebrate our country alongside the tens of millions of people who call this beautiful, welcoming and ambitious land home.
Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦.
Some extreme activists are trying to bring Alberta separatism to BC.
But British Columbians are proud Canadians who expect their to leaders stand up for Canada unequivocally. At every opportunity.
The stakes are too high. 🇨🇦

I’m hearing concerns from residents throughout Howe Sound about land-use agreements and backroom deals that commit public authority and public funds without public awareness.
People who live and recreate here deserve to know what is being negotiated, and who is at the table.

I spoke with @jimcsek on @KelownaNow to discuss who controls access to BC’s backcountry and what #DRIPA means for recreation.
From groups being asked to pay fees just to access public land, people are noticing and sharing concerns with @PublicLandBC

What does it say of our sovereignty when @Dave_Eby & his govt refer to BC as “stolen lands," while systematically surrendering the province's core decision-making powers w/out a public mandate asks @PublicLandBC Warren Mirko for @BeatNorthern

@marissenmark You're suggesting, what, that the @VancouverSun article and @Dave_Eby's blunder is disinformation?
Even @SChandraHerbert admits “There have been too many times where things should have been shared and weren’t, and that includes with the people of B.C."
Reconciliation must bring the public along. It cannot be built on secrecy.
Watch PLUS Director @WarrenMirko with Steven Malkowich discuss where the government is taking British Columbia through land-use agreements and reconciliation. #bcpoli
I first wrote about this in 2014 in the @VancouverSun:
"Letting a short-term urban farm occupy the space lets land owners avoid paying higher taxes."
