Sure thing, they will take Montreal, Saint John, Saint Johns, Halifax, Quebec city, Vancouver, Victoria, and other natural waterways and harbors where they were originally established. It would be hard to argue for natural resources that they didn't use like oil and mines, but the major port cities are a given.
Well this is an interesting narrative. Experts estimate the total aboriginal population in the total geographical area of what is now know as Canada just prior to Columbus to be just under 1 million people, which is less than the aboriginal population today in Canada, then the overwhelming majority who died post-Colombus/Cabot were by disease. Jacques Cartier estimated the aboriginal village Hochelaga he encountered in Montreal had about 1000 people. But they deserve the whole island? I say give them what they had, or a reasonably equal alternative location if there's a subdevelopment sitting on it.
Natives never saw nor stepped foot on nor even knew existed 99.999% of Canada's vast expanse. They didn't even have horses or any domesticated land transport until Europeans brought them. But this is "their land". It's all theirs. They didn't even believe in land ownership, but it belongs to them. A bunch of scattered small villages and clans here and there across a vast continent can claim it all theirs. There were no borders or such thing as "Canada" or "US" before they came, just a bunch of wilderness and unaffiliated native groups/alliances fighting over the small bits of territory they knew existed. Native groups routinely attacked each other,
**** & pillaged, & stole each other's land & resources, but someone else does it to them & well omg i'm a victim. They would have done the same or worse to us if they had the guns, but whitey was so evil. They certainly don't "own" nor have any rightful claim to any major waterways, and they can still use them all today if they want to just like everyone else. Natives don't even need a passport to cross into the USA just a status card, because the idea is "it's all their land and they don't recognize borders", what a bunch of BS. There are different narratives here, but usually only 1 or 2 are considered so with most the truth is incomplete, I'm sure for myself as well.
Let's face it, we don't have to give them anything back, like every other invading army in the history of human civilization, but we do and should because we're compassionate and did make some mistakes and did steal some land & they suffer/ed. Indian war paint imagery should be taken down from public spaces and not celebrated because people who wore it killed &
**** & scalped some of my European ancestors blah blah like this is the PC mentality.
