3 Alberta First Nations sagen, der Trennungsantrag sei verfassungswidrig

[removed]

They should read the Clarity Act. We’ve already been through this with Quebec and the Supreme Court has already weighed in on it.

Any article that doesn’t even reference the Act is not journalism.

>The First Nations claim the province had a constitutional duty to consult them on the impact of a referendum and it failed to do so, contrary to the rule of law, democracy and the protection of minority rights.

>The First Nations are asking that the courts declare the separation petition as “null and void,” *along with reimbursing the First Nations for the cost of the court action.*

All you need to know folks. It’s always about the Chiefs not getting the opportunity to demand to be compensated for anything the government wants to do.

I wonder what minority right to self-determination Albertan separatists claim…

Is it to save their language threatened by the dominance of the majority language, English, in Canada?

Is it to save their unique culture, threatened by the dominance of dominance of the majority culture, English, in Canada?

Is it because they form a religious minority threatened by the dominance of the majority religion in Canada, Protestantism?

Is it because they form a visible minority, misunderstood by the majority White culture of this country?

Is it because they represent a unique ethnicity that is threatened with forced assimilation into the North American majority ethnicity characterized by **European Protestant white English speaking** origins?

I agree with the first nations.
