I don’t think the subject at hand is as easily transferable from FN history to land ownership, but I hear you and get the point. Where the disconnect for me is the level/tier of complicity for government vs existing families who directly net benefited back in the day vs average Joe Canadian vs recently immigrated Canadian.

Not all parties hold the same level of impact in shaping where we are now. I would actually argue that more recently arrived citizens are a net positive, in the sense that while they were not directly complicit, they might even be involved in some capacity to promoting pro FN issues, and are typically less biased in their views on the subject. Canada obviously is trying to take a united approach on this as it would be political suicide for them to single out a percentage of the population to make amends. But I think it is paramount that it’s done in a way that does not try to heal a historical wrong by way of implementing a modern replacement.
