How would you feel if they decided to turn it into a landfill or a nuclear powerplant or a massive chemical production facility that didn't have to comply with environmental laws.

It's great they want to build big buildings, but the reality is if you say a group of people are above the law, then they can do whatever they want, including things that would be solely in their interest and in no-one else's.

It’s kind of ironic to speak about environmental destruction and groups of people being above the law in the context of Indigenous history in the Americas.
