Government can, in certain circumstances, override Aboriginal title. Where title has not yet been proven but a viable claim exists, the duty to consult means that government must take that title claim into account and, as that claim is stronger, engage in potentially significant accommodation of the title claim. This case significantly strengthens the ability of Aboriginal communities with title claims to reject resource development on their lands.
