The key piece of information is the treaties. Long story short: The treaties a were signed with "the Crown", the absolute power of Canada that still exists (it's just no longer controlled by the actual Kng but by the government) with the sovereign first nations.
This is a small distinction but it makes all the difference. The treaties supercede any other Canadian legislation because they are signed with the Crown itself, the representation of the full abstract authority of the government, so they outweigh (at least in theory) any other law that came after.
The chiefs are calling the King as a power move, they are reminding him and the Canadian bureaucrsts "your ancestors and descendants are bound by this deal, the power you represent is bound by this deal, it is not a negotiation"
Imagine pulling an email with the CEO while talking to a manager, this is what they are doing.
You are giving a perfect example of what I'm saying. Zero of your information is useful or applicable and you insist that "just do it bro" is the answer.
You apparently don't even know unions work differently depending on the country, and yet you "educated" me as if you were giving me the secret to catgirls.
This is exactly my point. There is a disconnect between the ideologues and those privileged enough to be able to join an existing union, and the reality of the majority of workers that can't simply "just join a union or make your own" like its ordering a meal of Uber eats.
Unions are a privilege, and we should stop acting like it's something anyone can "just get one bro".
I mean sure. It's also okay to want a partner that cares about your experience during intimate, vulnerable acts instead of a guy who sees you as just a useful hole
It used to blow my mind that the "omg how can the vote for Trump are they blind fanatics!n!?" would be the same "Omg how do you not see how easy this is!!?" people, but now I realize it's just people being loyal to their team, whatever it is.
This is it. People don't have feelings for a machine. People have feelings for the system and the oligarchs running things, but said oligarchs keep telling you to hate the inanimate machine.
Idk why you're getting downvoted. You're right. It's insane that for some people "create a union" seems to be a magic solution that anyone can just magically do on their own.
There is a lot of magical thinking and ideology in this thread, very little grounded, human to human advice.
I love how people talk about joining a union like it's making an order on Amazon.
If it was that easy bro probably wouldn't be asking for help.
The reality is in a lot of cases the easier thing to do is quit and fuck everyone else.
Unions do very little to make it easier to create a new one if you are not part of one already, and even if you have the will, you also need the network, people skills, patience, money and contacts to make it work.
