BRITISH COLUMBIAS LAND CRISIS IS THE PRODUCT OF UNFINISHED CONFEDERSTION
By Domenic Cinalli | Northern British Columbia Advocate and Independent Writer
British Columbia is not experiencing a sudden crisis of land, resources, or governance. What the province is facing is the accumulated consequence of decisions postponed for more than one hundred and fifty years. Each generation of government deferred the core question rather than resolving it. Each reform layered complexity onto an unstable foundation. What exists today is not a failure of one statute or one court decision, but a structural breakdown rooted in unfinished Confederation.
