DK, I know some rerally lovely people who will be voting, "YES", and who work for Aboriginal organisations on the front line, and whose organisations are active pushing the yes vote, and are contributing big money to the campaign. This is a problem for we veterans who have had exposure to the real world of politics and geopolitics. We simply do not discuss it with our friends and colleagues. They are way to unworldly to absorb the depth of deceit or to absorb the ruthlessness of their senior management. It takes years to learn, and time is what we do not have.

Thanks. I am trying to get informed. Anytime I see government pushing for something, I get skeptical. :)

So, I would like to vote yes as well, but I am skeptical...I understand why people would like to vote "Yes". It is positive approach. Similar to vaccines and so many other interventionist actions.

I am not sure I understand the below:

Are you saying we are the veterans, being skeptical and questioning and discussing in an open manner? And many others are not? If so, then I agree. However, we all have to start, we all did. It takes time. You are right. Time is what we do have. Some may think time is we do not have because Oct 14th is around the corner. Perhaps that is another tactic.
