Overview

Staying abreast of developments in Indigenous law and policy is critical for legal and business professionals in many industries across Canada. To help you stay current, Osler is pleased to present Indigenous Law Insights, a monthly webinar series.

Available live and on-demand, each 30 minute session will provide you with an update on recent court decisions, as well as pending and new legislative and policy developments. Members of our Indigenous Law group will deliver timely and practical information about what these developments mean for your business.

Brodie Noga, an associate in Osler's Litigation Group shared his insights on the following cases:

  • Thomas v. Rio Tinto Alcan Inc., 2024 BCCA 62, which discusses the regulatory authorization defence to nuisance claims for historical harm caused by large projects to Aboriginal rights and title.
  • An update on the BC Government’s recent announcement that they intend to revise the Land Act to create a co-management framework for all Crown land in the province.
