Chile…or Canada?

It’s getting hard to tell, eh?

“Mister, I just bought this land, it’s mine…get off it!”
“But…”
“TERRORIST!”

Yup, that sounds about right. And Chile’s native land-claims laws are even worse than ours, if such things are possible. In fact, a lot of Chilean Aymara, Mapuche, etc., would probably sum them up with a resounding “WHAT native land-claims laws?”

And oh yeah, apropos that:

sangre-mapuche

“We all have Mapuche blood — the poor in their veins, and the rich on their hands.”

A sentiment with which Attawapiskat’s poor could heartily sympathize, all right.
