I saw another post about these developments on Mastodon and the link includes pics of the development visions themselves, which look kinda neat tbh (obvious cn for quotes of violent settler nonsense): https://macleans.ca/society/sen̓aḵw-vancouver/
I especially liked this part:
What chafes critics, even those who might consider themselves progressive, is that they expect reconciliation to instead look like a kind of reversal, rewinding the tape of history to some museum-diorama past. Coalitions of neighbours near Iy̓álmexw and Sen̓áḵw have offered their own counter-proposals for developing the sites, featuring smaller, shorter buildings and other changes. At the January hearing for Iy̓álmexw, one resident called on the First Nations to build entirely with selectively logged B.C. timber, in accord with what she claimed were their cultural values. These types of requests reveal that many Canadians believe the purpose of reconciliation is not to uphold Indigenous rights and sovereignty, but to quietly scrub centuries of colonial residue from the landscape, ultimately in service of their own aesthetic preferences and personal interests.
That attitude can cast Indigenous people in the role of glorified park rangers—and even then, with limits on their authority. … But Indigenous nations are accountable, first and foremost, to their own citizens.
