I honestly don't understand what all the resistance against these concessions are. Sure, in dollar terms it's sizable, but reparations don't need to be in dollar terms: they can be given through economic concessions that stimulate the economy as a whole.

For example, First Nations land within cities can be given zoning concessions to simultaneously address the Canadian housing crisis and drive profit to First Nations. First Nations businesses can be given greater tax concessions for R&D. The Canadian government can use its liabilities as a blank cheque to invest in anything, so long as First Nations people are the ones who profit from it.
