It’s been the prettiest love story in recent Canadian political history — the romancing of the Assembly of First Nations by the Liberal government.

But there are early signs that the relationship between the star-crossed lovers could be fraying.

Jody Wilson-Raybould, the justice minister, spoke at the AFN’s general assembly in Niagara Falls Wednesday, where she dropped the bombshell that adopting the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as Canadian law is “unworkable.”

She went further. “Respectfully, it is a political distraction to undertaking the hard work required to actually implement it,” she said.

Wtf are they smoking over at the UN? They recommended to had over the country to Natives?

Looks like the liberals actually have a brain if they can recognize this is absolute bull $hit

Let's hand over the country to people who were still living in the Stone Age 200 years ago. There are some brain dead people working at the UN
