Honestly, the indigenous nations should just sue the settlers for the trees they cut down.

My council actually did this.

Awesome! I'd love to hear about it if you don't mind telling the story.

Its nothing too exciting. There was a rancher not too far away from rez, and his property line extended just to the tree line, which was council territory. One day he decided to cut into the bush to extend his farm further for cattle. If the rancher had approached the council, i guarantee they would've worked something out, but he didn't. The council had him fined for every foot he cleared, which ended up being nearly 500,000$. Council bought a bunch of new stuff for the rec centre when they got it.
