1. Sorry … my people cannot pronounce an x with a seagull flying over it. Not gonna say the intentionally unpronounceable word.

2. Ignore this stupidity. Natives never had a written language so stop with the Khoisan nonsense.

   1. Fairly certain those letters came from the Roman alphabet. Talk about expropriation

   2. Good repost. No street sign or map place name can be replaced by some imaginary FN BS.

3. Forever, the Queen Charlotte lslands, Strait of Georgia and Powell River will be called those names, not the word salad of native names THEY are shoving down our throats.
   The hilarious part of all this, is that THEY spell out the unpronounceable native jargon in hieroglyphics.
   The natives never had a written language!
   They lived, essentially, a caveman existence. They had not even discovered The Wheel.
   But like the Greenies, THEY know everything!

   1. That’s “Liǧwiłdax̌w Passage.” to you whitey, pronounced “Discovery Passage”

4. Hilarious to watch the #NDPee digging their own grave here.

   How many #NativeLanguage nerds are there in BC to vote for this compared to house painters and truck drivers who will line up to vote against it?

   1. I wish, but looks like just enough people still being fooled by “anti-vaxxer, Free munny, drugs are cool, hateful words, capitalism sux” mantras.
      The brainwashing continues for another four years, just long enough for the Commies to give it all away.
      These same Low Info voters just cant see that things are worse everywhere after 7 years of ENDP cult rule and failures. The old axiom applies, things have to get a lot worse before they get better.
      The Low Infos now believe that the Endies have just come up with all these solutions in the last 3 weeks, that they’ve had 7 years of failure, but only NOW, will they provide ‘solutions’.
      SUCKERS.

   2. the one and only thing the indigenous peoples need is clean drinkable potable water!!! that would be so much less costly!
      the people in need of a simple solution to the tribes on the reserves is clean water!
      spending large sums of tax dollars renaming streets, highways, changing names of waterways with names that are unpronounceable and amounts to nothing more than a slap on the side of their heads.

5. Can anyone say this name?

   Yes. It’s pronounced, “PhuqueYouWhitey”.

   1. There is an alternative pronunciation: “Send us the money”.

   2. That’s EACTLY it DB …

      Oh! And BTW … I work with several consultants who are FOB Chinese with really unpronounceable first names … every single one of them has adopted an English name in place of the silverware names.

      I believe it is GOOD for their business. I guess Asians are just SMARTER than the bands of Indians.

   3. An alternative pronunciation is “Davis Passage”, although you rendition is more accurate.

6. Say it? I can’t even READ it!

7. How do they know that the current tribe is the same as the ancestral tribe that these tribes may have genocided?

   1. They don’t, or they are not saying.

8. Hey, that’s what we named our cat, so that name is already taken. Try another name, BC.

   1. PS. – We can’t say our cat’s name, either. So, we just say, “Here kitty. Here kitty, kitty.”

   2. You named your cat “Davis Passage”?

9. Their election slogan “taking action for you”. Why can’t they take action that does something like at the gas pump or the food store?
   Asking for a friend.

10. I can..”Shitholia Shitholia Passage”..Of course when using a chart them there English language Names just might hang around and haunt the retards.

11. “Thomas joined the provincial Ministry of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport as an Indigenous youth intern in 2019,”
    A no nothing wanna be big chief with no education is being allowed to implement this costly insane renaming madness.

    1. ah.
       thomas.
       you know that movie Black Robe? (that was some realistic stuff), a question.
       how many ‘thomas’es were ALREADY ON THE CONTINENT at the time depicted?
       lm confoosed, the ‘natives’ are copping all kind of neat stuff then we all go down a rabbit hole in search of the correct name for their stuff.

12. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CA%94
    The funny ? Is called a “glottal stop”

    There’s a sound clip at the link of how to pronounce it. I’m not sure my throat can make that noise without coughing.

    1. The “glottal stop” is the first character in the word. How do you have a stop before you’ve started?

13. ?uxstalis ligwildaxw…how you say zat een French ?

    1. No worries – all those new indigenous archeologists being churned out
       will soon find the new rosetta stone for us.

    2. “Nyucks dailies lee chilled achoo”. Awaiting feedback from the elders on this.

       1. “Feedback from the Elders” should be the house band at the Kerby Centre in Calgary.

    3. Francais: “Zux Ti Talis TaberDax”

14. If there are 100’s of Indian languages why is there only one song?

    1. You’re wrong. Dijinus peoplekind sing Hiya Hiya and shuffle clockwise. Brijinull peoplekinds sing Yahi Yahi and dance counter-clockwise.

15. I wanna know how many Indians can say it.

    1. One. It’s a fraud.

16. Can’t say it. But I’m pretty sure it means “Up yours white sucker.”

    1. Come now, it has profound spiritual meaning. I translate it, “Location used by Thunderfish Spirit as flush toilet”, or more idiomatically “Boomercrapper”. It alludes to the complex mythology of the Purging of Thunderfish, central to the native cosmology, and indeed, diet and hygiene.

       1. Oh, you scoff. I tell you, in 20 years, they’ll be giving graduate degrees for papers in Thunderfish Mythos studies. You read it here first.

17. David Eby thinks he’s the perfect dispenser / creator of rights and privileges for the “downtrodden indigenous people” but in reality he’s their favourite useful idiot of the grievance industry. Replacing history with a revisionist naming that might be recognizable to 0.1% of the population by a provincial government that doubled the provincial debt in two terms won’t endear them to people on 2 year waiting lists for elective surgery.

18. I’m so old, I remember when Johnny Cretin was going to rename Mount Logan “Mount Trudeau”…
