Thank you for some very interesting links.

It's unfortunate that two other major observing sites are also experiencing similar issues, despite apparently amicable relations in the past.

Of course, though, Mauna Kea is more vital and irreplaceable than mountain
within the United States of relatively modest height.


Both mountains are within the United States.

In Canada, unlike the United States, persons of indigenous origin are a
sufficiently large proportion of the population that they loom as large in our
awareness as descendants of the victims of the slave trade do in your country.



Today's descendants of the victims of the slave trade are not themselves victims of the slave trade.
