The BC Treaty Negotiating Times

The First Nations Leadership Council is collaborating with the province to recognize crown title in BC. They promise a province-wide
benefits sharing agreement. Who is the province to pretend they can
recognize indigenous rights? We do not need the province to recognize our rights, but the province needs indigenous peoples to recognize them, because they have no jurisdiction over our traditional
territories.

In this Special Edition of the BC Treaty Negotiating Times, we bring you insight, international comparisons, and criticism.
