The topic for this week's forum is Indigenous peoples' claims to land based on reservation and treaty rights. The case you should read, to give this discussion the proper context, is:Tsilhoqot'in Nation v. British Columbia.You can read the case brief here:https://canliiconnects.org/en/summaries/45546

Your goal for this discussion forum is to: 1) provide an opinion on the case; 2) explain why you think it took until 2004 for the Supreme Court to decide that consent from a First Nation's group that may be affected by the development of land requires their consent; and 3) share a recent news story that highlights how there is still more work to be done to repair the relationship between the Province of British Columbia/the Government of Canada and the Indigenous people who currently live in B.C
