About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of Aboriginal land claims and policies on private property in Canada.

Does it create uncertainty for homeowners or investors? Join David Leis live with Tom Isaac, B.C. lawyer focused on Aboriginal law, and Bruce Hallsor, real estate lawyer, as they walk through what’s happening, what it means in plain language, and what Canadians should be watching for next. If you own property, plan to, or care about where the country is headed, this one matters.
