  1. And if the victim is non-indigenous, will they be allowed to speak in this “court”? What about their rights to justice according to the laws of Canada? We know what the answer from the authorities will be: “too bad, so sad.”

  2. Don’t forget courts for immigrants. I was brought here by my parents when I was an infant — still traumatized.

  3. So long as they are administering their form of justice to their own people (or anyone on their land) for things done on their own reservations, fine.
    For things done off the reservations, they should be treated as if they were in a foreign country, and are subject to those (our) laws, our justice.
    But only indigenous people, who didn’t ask to be conquered and who we’ve given a certain level of self-determination on their own reservation land. Nobody else. You an immigrant? Tough. You have to live by our law. Don’t like it? Go back to where you or your parents or grandparents came from. You want Sharia law/courts? Back to the Middle East with you.

    1. Indians should get their own justice system when they pay for it with all that tax collected on the reserve. If they are “nations” perhaps we should be negotiating borders. You can’t have a federally financed tax-free racial ghetto and call it a nation.

      1. There are borders. Its just that presently there are no manned border crossings and visitors from reserves are allowed to enter without clearing customs and these visitors are allowed to stay for indeterminate periods of time without visa or other requirement.

        1. Yeah, and it doesn’t work the other way around. Try entering a Rez sometime, you will be met by an Un-welcoming committee.

  4. remember marion boyd? the ndp pudge from ontariowe, tried to wedge sharia lite onto us. remember that?
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Boyd#After_politics seems to me its the kaybeck referendumb strategy, make a grab for it, didnt work? wait a respectable time, rinse and repeat until successful.
    the no side gotta win EVERY TIME that way, but the pro side only gotta win once.
    to all ye 5th columnists, itching to display full compliance when the time comes, be assured ye useful idjits youre next.

    1. Ugh! I’m embarrassed that I forgot that bit of history.
      Thanks for the reminder.

  5. They have not read — as I have — Friedrich Hayek’s majestic two volume masterpiece The Constitution of Liberty. .
    I no longer read this stuff having come to the conclusion that once liberty is lost it’s never found again. Oh, there are some vestigial residues, but they’re mostly form and format; but partial liberty is not liberty.

    Echoing Shakespeare’s de-horsed Richard III in his final battle: MY KINGDOM FOR A GOOD IDEA. Migawd, it’s depressing.

  6. This is what happened when EQUALITY was replaced by EQUITY.

    And the dull-witted public thought … “Oh well, they both sound similar, eh? ” … and who doesn’t want equality?

    1. ADD a word – SUBTRACT a word.
      The left often mangles a concept by adding a word:
      e.g. social justice.
      In this instance they’ve eliminated three: Equality before the law.

  7. Truly the Balkanization of Canada. Our future involves civil war, racial war, religious war. Tolerant, peace-loving Canada is on the road to ruin.

  8. Alright but let’s say I commit a crime and can get off easier in an alternate court can I self identify as indigenous or merely say Alahu Akbar?

  9. Well, their plan is to use Bullying, Ridicule, Slavery and Banishment in their tribal courts for the “restitution”, before it spirals out of control into all out tribal warfare in the quest for “retribution”?

    1. Also for reference:
      “Offences against property were generally considered private. These included sexual offences as women were considered property in many indigenous groups. Their mutilation by aggrieved husbands was an oft mentioned sanction. Unless one compares’ scratching of children to snipping away of noses, mutilation of errant women marks a rare departure in sanctions meted out to tribal members.”

      Is that what the want to bring back?

  10. The Indian Act should go; all reserves, privatized and taxes paid.
