So picture this.  The Halifax Historical Society gathers at the Cornwallis statue on his birthday to celebrate his role in the founding of Halifax.  A group of 5 first nations people approach the group and ask questions, make negative remarks about Cornwallis and his legacy, and claim ownership to the land in the park.  A mostly civil discussion follows. 
 After making their point.  They leave.

Should anyone get fired?  Suffer any other repercussions.   Not a chance.  No harm, no foul.  Everyone drive on.  We live in a democracy.  People have an inherent right to disagree.  

So what is the difference.  Justice should be colour blind, right?  Or maybe Tabitha doesn't  believe that any more.
