The 1836 Letters Patent weren't followed up by the Europeans when they first arrived... All over Australia we're still fighting for a treaty. Over 200 years later Australia still hasn't got one. Every other country... the Canadians, the Indians, the Māoris in New Zealand... At the moment we're the only former British colony on the United Nations international council without a treaty and we need one.

No treaty... no rights.
No rights... no nothing.
No reconciliation.
