Cathy Guirguis on resolving Aboriginal land claims at the negotiation table, not in court

When it comes to unresolved Aboriginal title claims, are the courts the right forum? Or are they simply setting the stage for something that must ultimately be resolved at the negotiating table? Cathy Guirguis, CEO and partner at OKT, explains why cases like Wolastoqey in New Brunswick and Cowichan in British Columbia were inevitable, the collision between Aboriginal land claims and private property, and how courts have rejected the doctrines of Discovery and Terra Nullius — a position reinforced by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada. She also explores whether courts are subtly pushing reconciliation away from litigation and toward negotiation, the political reality governments face when reconciliation collides with voter pressure, and the creative — and sometimes missed — opportunities for negotiated settlements.
