The term "country" for Aboriginals is not the same as new arrivals like you and I. Aboriginals had about 500 different countries within whats now been called Australia by the Brittish. Their welcome to country reflects a welcome to their historical area which they are still connected to. Nothing more and nothing less. It really shouldn't be a source of such angst.

locals do not need to be welcomed to their own country. Vut keep up the bs lets increase it as the more you do it the less meaning it will have and will turn people away quicker.
