Publisher Description
A COMPELLING SOLUTION TO ENDING THE TRAGICALLY HIGH DEGREE OF POVERTY AND SOCIAL DYSFUNCTION IN ABORIGINAL COMMUNITIES - LEGAL EQUALITY LEADING TO SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC EQUALITY.
For decades Canada's Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal elites have been doubling down on the apartheid-like, "separate but equal" dysfunctional status quo that has so harmed the vast majority of vulnerable, marginalized and powerless Aboriginal Canadians.
Retired lawyer Peter Best offers as a compelling remedy the Nelson Mandela/William Wuttunee solution: legal equality with the rest of Canadians, being the necessary precursor to social and economic equality. Mr. Best persuasively argues that this can only be achieved by repealing section 35 of the Constitution, reversing the harmful Supreme Court of Canada decisions interpreting it, repealing the Indian Act, phasing out the reserves, and ending all other special race-based laws and entitlements for Canada's Aboriginals.
Mr. Best also raises a strong cry of alarm against the country-harming diminution and fragmentation of crucial, sole Crown sovereignty caused by the Supreme Court of Canada, which has been enabled and even furthered by our politicians and other elites.
There Is No Difference is a respectful and heartfelt argument and plea for our Aboriginal peoples to join our increasingly cosmopolitan and racially indifferent 21st century Canadian family on the basis of full equality of rights and responsibilities.
