Why???????

This is such a stupid statement. If my ancestors were "invaders" then what are today's Somalis, Syrians, Indonesians, etc etc.

According to the Indians, if you aren't Indian, you are an invader. It's great that people finally see the light. Seems to be a lot of people, of all ages, that bought the bullshit of treaties and peace in grade school history class. The buck keeps being passed down the line and it is far overdue to address this once and for all. But I doubt it will and the Indians will shut down country from now on whenever they please.

Probably a good thing Conservatives aren't in power for this. They have pretty much lost their cool and Scheer proved yesterday we would already have a civil war with his check your privilege comment - he really needs to quit drinking in the middle of the day. Although I fully support him to enter the Mohawk land and tell them that face-to-face. The Conservative backbencher MP on Power Play yesterday completely lost his mind (and mouth) and I am sure there are a few Indians who would like to mount his scalp on their wall.

Might need to prepare for a NDP minority next time. Because the other two parties just cooked their Indian vote and haven't offered any solutions to problem for the rest of the white man country to inspire confidence in them. I certainly wouldn't doubt my area going NDP next time over this, with our huge Indian population.

As usual ...the sound bite was bad for Scheer....when I listened to the whole thing I don't think he was trying to upset the Indigenous people...I think he was pointing out the paid protesters that are blocking the average guys commute or industry's ability to keep its business moving are the ones that should check their privilege...

Which I agree with....This whole mess is a highlight of this Liberal government incompetence ...

Trudeau has said since day one that Harper never got a pipeline built....Trudeau is at year 5 and done nothing but made it worse...

Scheer is on the way out so he can have a day of rage. I think all of Canada is having one after this, but the native vote wont move the dial. They are only 5% of the population, very spread out and diluted effect and have a very low turnout rate. Many are encouraged to shun Canadian democracy.

Yes I would agree CPC is probably glad they are not in power during this powder keg. Trouble is if it gets away on Justin, there wont be anyone able to put a cork on the bottle. Once you empower a group and then tolerate their uprising further, that will only embolden them further.

Unless that's part of the plan? Anyway maybe Canada cracks from it all, or it emerges stronger. I doubt that happens because our national identity has been shattered. We are 5 countries, not one and our common reason to work together is gone.

I still ask the same question? When is was decided that Ft Mac and all oil fields for that matter, would be developed and oil exported why didn't they make sure the pipelines or rail road were able to be built in the first place? At least our forefathers that settled the prairies built the RR before they broke the land and built towns and grain elevators. Now AB gov't wants to start more new mines up north can't even move the oil we have now.
