Indigenous tribes in Vancouver are building high-density housing on their land, causing controversy among wealthy residents who previously advocated for land return. The Sen̓áḵw development showcases Native sovereignty in avoiding zoning restrictions and promoting entrepreneurship.
Rich Liberals Fume After Native Americans Decide To Build High-Rises On Tribal City Land https://t.co/857wYISPKO
Some of Vancouver's wealthiest and most progressive neighborhoods are realizing that the American Indians aren't satisfied with self-righteous platitudes and would rather build big. | @LutherAbel1 https://t.co/gsd7yLvM8k
The rise of Indigenous entrepreneurship and improved governance is an untold story of the past decade. Some of the most capitalist people I have met have been Indigenous entrepreneurs, including one who told me he was going to build "Singapore on the Prairies." https://t.co/TiyE5YzbTf
this is so funny. rich liberals in Vancouver who have been protesting for land be returned to Indigenous people are now upset because one of the city's last plots of underdeveloped land was sold to local tribes and they're razing it to build an ultra-high density condo project. https://t.co/OnhP5ht77w

The Sen̓áḵw development in Vancouver is too exciting. Native sovereignty over this land lets them avoid zoning nonsense and actually build housing for their people and others. @Khelsilem, any time you like we'd love to have you in class here at U of T! https://t.co/BgBQuUly0k

Truly hilarious. First Nations tribes build on their land, and a white guy is upset that their dense urban housing doesn't use "Indigenous way[s] of building]! I say we land acknowledge parts of Brooklyn back to the Lenape and let them build cool skyscrapers. Take that NIMBYs! https://t.co/fEWsF74WoA https://t.co/rA6r5PvIZw
