Substantive Series: The Supreme Court of Canada Decision on Aboriginal Title: Practical Implications Arising from Tsilhqot'in

Join Bennett Jones and our panel of expert speakers:

Wally Braul, Partner
Radha Curpen, Partner
Jessica Mathewson, Associate 

for a BJA substantive series course which will focus on:

• What types of Crown land will be especially targeted by future Aboriginal title cases?
• How can First Nations consent to non-Aboriginal use of proven Aboriginal title lands? What is necessary to ensure that consent provides certainty needed for resource projects?
• Will the regulation of projects on First Nation-owned lands be significantly different than current regimes governing Crown land?
• Short of proving Aboriginal title lands, how are First Nations leveraging the Tsilhqot'in decision?
• What about lands covered by Treaty 'land surrender' clauses – how is the decision relevant?
• How are governments shaping their policy and legal responses to Tsilhqot'in?
• What should governments do?.
