This is a HUGE step of progress!!! And long overdue.The Supreme Court of Canada has acknowledged Aboriginal entitlement over the lands of Tsilhqotin Nations traditional territory. Bravo!! Land under Aboriginal title, cannot be alienated except to the Crown or encumbered in ways that would prevent future generations of the group from using and enjoying it. Nor can the land be developed or misused in a way that would substantially deprive future generations of the benefit of the land. As a result of the ruling, governments now must meet a set-out standard for incursions into land under established Aboriginal title.
