Geoffrey S. Moyse and Warren Mirko on Land Claims, Unceded Territory, and Transparency

The Cowichan Tribes v. Canada (Attorney General) decision sent shockwaves through British Columbia and beyond. Geoffrey S. Moyse, a senior lawyer with 31 years’ experience in Indigenous and public law, and Warren Mirko, executive director of the Public Land Use Society, break down what the court actually decided—and what it didn’t. They also explain why British Columbia’s lack of historic treaties fuels uncertainty over private and public lands, and how terms like “unceded” and “stolen land” are reshaping the public’s understanding and the government’s practice around Aboriginal land claims. They also raise concerns about transparency and accountability when landowners are left uninformed about title claims affecting their property, and why closed-door land-use agreements pose serious questions for certainty, democratic oversight, and long-term governance. ABOUT SERIES #3 SERIES #3 examines the growing tension between Aboriginal title, private property, and land-use certainty — starting in British Columbia. We’ll look at how recent court decisions are reshaping investment risk, governance, and Canada’s ability to build with confidence. You’ll hear from leading legal minds, policy experts, academics, and practitioners working at the intersection of Indigenous law, major projects, and economic development. SERIES 3 is presented in collaboration with the Macdonald-Laurier Institute. Make sure you subscribe to never miss an episode.
