The Indigenous Consultation Crisis Nobody Wants to Discuss
With Allan and Corri Hunsperger · Guest: Cory Morgan
Canada's duty-to-consult framework was created to protect treaty rights, but has it evolved into something much bigger? Western Standard senior Alberta columnist Cory Morgan discusses how court rulings have expanded consultation requirements and what that could mean for pipelines, economic development, Alberta's independence movement, and the future of democracy in Canada. Allan and Corri also explore Canada's growing challenges and why true restoration starts with a return to God.
