LISPOP Associate Christopher Alcantara discusses proposed law that would extend individual property rights to first nations living on reserves. Supporters say it’s a tool for economic prosperity. Critics say it’s an attack on sovereignty.
A very convincing case is made by Dr. Alcantara. This legislation also seems thought-out and logical. An excellent interview, and some excellent work by Dr. Alcantara (and, by extension, LISPOP).
