British Columbias Unresolved Indigenous Claims: A Federal Deal Sparks Reactions
A federal deal recognizing the Musqueam Indian Bands rights and title over vast lands in southern British Columbia, including metro Vancouver, has sparked big reactions. Homeowners worry about private property, while neighboring First Nations push back, claiming overlapping traditional territories. Experts blame lazy governance over the past century and a half for the mess, which has stalled projects and drained public funds on court fights. The situation is shifting with the adoption of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, but a recent court ruling has raised questions about its fit with mineral laws.
