"Their people"?
Do you mean "fellow Canadians"?
I'm sorry, but saying that the completely unregulated harvest of big game is not sustainable, does not qualify as racist.
Someone saying that "rights" shouldn't trump "equality" isn't racist.
In fact, a lot of FN would agree that equality should be the goal of everyone that isn't "racist".
Having 58 metis/aboriginal hunters (nearly all after moose), and 52 licenced moose hunters (first rifle numbers) is not sustainable within the base. Full Stop.
Now if you're saying that one group has more rights to the resource than the other based solely on race, well that right there is the definition of racist.
And I understand what treaty rights are, I'm just clarifying the definition of racist for you so you quit dropping the term like a trump card every time someone says something you disagree with.
