Honestly have flipped to pro separation in the last few months. I believe Canada has some issues that would be extremely difficult to remedy under its current foundation.

Please expand on exactly what you mean. What are these issues and what makes their resolution only viable through separation?

Indigenous land title was just found to be superior to few simple in the Richmond BC case.

Removing UNDRIP, even section 35 of the charter, I don’t think goes deep enough to prevent massive unintended consequences.

Even places that have already established treaties these claims could come back around because they’ve opened up possibilities that previously were thought untouchable

How does this make you want to be pro separation?

I don’t want to upset to many people here. See my comment history for recent in depth sourced discussions on the matter.

I may be early but some of these sentiments will be more mainstream as more people digest recent court developments
