I know “landlords bad”, but I feel like this could at least get a very historically fucked over group of people to… not be as fucked over? I mean it’s their ancestral land (technically, all of Vancouver is) so I’m not sure if it’s actually appropriate for socialists who support decolonisation to say what they shouldn’t do with it. Because let’s face it, Canada, if it ever becomes socialist, will probably be literally the last country to do so – speaking as someone who lives there.

Would they even count as landlords in this case? I can see some parallels to the Chinese model for land ownership, since it’s not individual people owning the land or charging rent but the government for a collective group.

IDK, what do you think?
