Dear Right Honourable Prime Minister, BC Premier David Eby, Provincial and Federal Ministers, Civic Mayors and Council:
We are urging all levels of government to stop signing secret deals with Indigenous groups that transfer publicly owned Crown land or compromise private property owner rights. These backroom agreements, driven by your recklessly adopted United Nations policies, enable activist courts to advance a radical “land back” agenda with no public mandate.
Veteran lawyers and academics across Canada warn these land claim "agreements" and court rulings are setting dangerous precedents that will make Canada uninvestable and ensure private property title is subordinate to Indigenous bands, from BC to Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes. Expected compensation payouts to bands for trillions of dollars in real estate values would bankrupt the country. Business investments, from forestry to mining and real estate developments have stalled, much of this from the perceived risk associated with uncertain land title disputes that take years to wind through the courts.
It's time to listen to the majority of citizens, not just specific racial groups. We are not "uninvited guests" or "settlers" but Canadians who've worked hard to build this vast country, creating jobs and industries that support our social, education and health care systems with tax dollars.
The costs of "reconciliation" have now doubled even our military spending with few results, while many Indigenous communities still lack clean water or financial transparency. The Federal Liberal government removed audit requirements, enabling some band councils to collect salaries exceeding those of national leaders.
Meanwhile, over $60 billion in federal Indigenous spending has inflated the national deficit. The Globe and Mail notes these liabilities represent a large share of Canada’s $61.9‑billion shortfall for 2024. Add on BC’s record debt and rising tax burdens. Taxpayers can no longer afford these unchecked ideological experiments. Government taxes (not housing costs) are now the single largest expense for the average Canadian household.
We call on the federal and provincial governments to:
✅ remove the unelected and unaccountable United Nations-developed ideological doctrines of Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (DRIPA) and United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) from our federal and provincial legislation.
🗳️ hold a national referendum on these secretive agreements to see if you have public support for these reconciliation costs.
✍️ ensure private property rights are embedded in our Constitution which currently only has protection for Indigenous land title.
💰 bring back the audit requirements for all bands that receive any government grants (taxpayer funding).
