What does the Cowichan title case really mean for Richmond homeowners?

About this episode

A B.C. Supreme Court ruling has recognized Cowichan Tribes’ Aboriginal title to a stretch of land in Richmond — leaving some homeowners uncertain about their property rights. Richmond’s mayor explains what’s next and B.C. Conservative leader John Rustad shares his reaction. *Correction: At the 0:42 and 10:04 mark of this segment, there are incorrect statements that the B.C. Supreme Court decision covers 7.5 square kilometres of land in Richmond, B.C. In fact, the ruling applies to a portion of that area, meaning Quw’utsun Nation has Aboriginal title to between 300 and 324 hectares (or 750 and 800 acres) of land.
