"British Columbians are currently behaving like a tenant who hasn’t paid rent since the Crimean War and is now absolutely scandalized that the landlord has stopped by to ask for a key. To hear the Western Standard tell it, David Eby invented 'land claims' in a Victoria basement in 2017. In reality, the 'crisis' isn’t a policy shift; it’s a physics problem. For a century, BC operated on the 'Ostrich Strategy'—burying its head in the muskeg and hoping the Supreme Court wouldn’t notice the Crown never actually bought the ground it’s standing on. Whether the NDP tries to fix the foundation with 'Shared Decision-Making' duct tape, or the Conservatives promise to 'repeal' reality back to 1950, the bill remains on the table. You can’t 'repeal' a Supreme Court ruling any more than you can vote to make gravity optional. We aren’t witnessing the 'deconstruction' of BC; we’re witnessing the inevitable collapse of a legal fiction that even the best political spin can no longer sustain."
