Wow that there is a lot of misinformation about Welcome to country. Take 2 minutes to read the Wikipedia and report back.

It’s definitely not misinformation, and Wikipedia is not a source. Try again, this time with an actual argument instead of essentially “nuh uh”.

If you’re going to make claims of “misinformation” you need to elaborate.

"It’s not some centuries old tradition, it was invented by Ernie Dingo in like the 90s" Misinformation, it is a modern take on traditional ceremony here is an investigation

Could you clarify your interpretation of the word of 'Country' in Welcome to Country? I could be reading your statement wrong but it appears you are defining it as the Country of Australia. As this is an incorrect interpretation in this context, I directed you to the Wikipedia which defines it better than anything I could type.
