R. v Daniels: Reshaping the Legal Landscape
Aboriginal Law | Original Program Date: June 20, 2016
The Supreme Court of Canada’s unanimous decision in R. v Daniels affirmed Canada's legislative authority over Métis and non-status Indians. This decision has the potential to reshape Canada’s constitutional landscape, as well as the relationship between Indigenous communities and the Crown. Join your colleagues for a lively discussion about what changes may come following the decision, what questions remain unanswered, and implications for the division of powers.
