The text of a fourth agreement also mentioned on the federal government website, which provides the Musqueam with a revenue stream from the ground lease of the Vancouver International Airport, is still being withheld. It should be noted that in the Rights Recognition Agreement, the federal government has unilaterally recognized Aboriginal title over federally-owned land and infrastructure in the Lower Mainland which is vital to the BC economy, including the Vancouver International Airport and the Port of Vancouver.

While the CBC routinely whips up public compassion for Indian Bands with no clean drinking water, the federal government (which funds the CBC) is secretly handing out control of approximately $1.9 trillion dollars’ worth of property in the BC Lower Mainland to the Musqueam Band (see attachments), which, according to the attached cartoon based on the Band’s 2024 financial statement, is worth a net $1.2 billion dollars, or $2.6 million per family in assets. As has recently been alleged, the federal government gives the appearance of picking winners and losers among Indian Bands, unfairly leaving the majority mired in dysfunction and poverty while enriching a few beyond their wildest dreams.
Negotiated in secret. It’s good to be Musqueam.
