"Ownership" just means a government grants you temporary exclusive access and they will back that privilege with law and violence, in exchange for money. It's a mafia racket outsourcing violence. It's also ironic because native peoples typically didn't "own" land anyway. I don't know about this particular group, but most native peoples in the Americas didn't have plots that they bought and sold. So now it's only through the introduction of Western property rights that they are even able to make a "legal" claim. Of course there is no "right" answer here, but typically throughout history when empires conquer by force, they don't later relinquish their plunder out of good will. Gives a new meaning to "Indian giving"?
All lands are conquered lands and you only have “title” to such lands as you can defend it. We now watch to see if Canadian citizens with existing land titles ( because they were part of the previous conquering system) allow themselves to become newly conquered through administrative processes.
The day is coming when the only "land" you can own is the land you can move... This world really needs to invest in O'Neill Cylinders and other space habitats that can get out of restrictive and oppressive zones...
Real estate never has been a safe asset. If you don't pay your taxes, you go to jail. Bitcoin is the only asset that you can own (given that you only store the seed phrase in your brain and don't leave a stamped seed phrase in metal ..)
Crazy how fast things are shifting. While real estate is starting to show cracks, look at what’s happening on the crypto side… XRP ETFs crossing $1B AUM faster than ETH says a lot. Institutions don’t chase hype, they move where the fundamentals are strongest. XRP is finally getting the recognition its tech has deserved for years. And now everyone is talking about the FLR rewards too. I actually hold some XRP myself, where do I even check if I’m eligible to claim mine?
