I feel like starting from this place won't really help anyone to advance the conversation - this may win views on TikTok but decolonizing Canada and sending everyone back to (insert country here) is never happening nor will Canada divest itself from natural resources completely and become a socio-anarchist state -- the best possible outcome is one where we leverage our resources carefully and responsibly and receive guidance from Indigenous communities and environmentalists but Canada going full stop green is not something that we will see in our lifetimes. Reality is all in the details and not the extremes.

    Awesome, please produce a reading list here to show how you came to this understanding.

    Obviously, criticizing settler-colonialism is not even remotely related to "send settlers back," and you know that, I know that, because you never see people demanding that. I don't care if criticizing things makes you catastrophize, you people need to be told this shit because you never actually accept the implications. If you cared about practicality you wouldn't spend so much time convoluting something like this and instead accept that criticisms of colonialism are a necessary element in whatever gradual measures you pretend to subscribe to.

    What a waste of time. Won't answer to anything but that reading list.
