Re: City-First Nation talks hit an impasse, Oct. 11.

I’m trying to reconcile how the Memorial Park project got to the stage of cowboys-versus-Indians in the 21st century.

If the reporting is accurate, I agree the city could have done a better job with protocols/consulting, but why did the First Nation have to wait until the eleventh hour to present their “cease-and-desist” order?

The problem obviously runs deeper than just this project.

Maybe it’s time to bury the hatchet and move on for the betterment of both communities.
