New Brunswick Court Pushes Back on Land Claims, or Not? | Bruce Pardy

About this episode

The episode discusses a New Brunswick court ruling on land claims and its implications for property rights in Canada.

Did a New Brunswick court just shift the land claims debate in Canada? A new ruling is raising major questions about how Aboriginal title interacts with private property—and whether Canada’s courts are starting to draw clearer lines after dangerous uncertainty. Join David Leis live with law professor Bruce Pardy, as he breaks down the New Brunswick decision, how it compares to B.C., and what it could mean for property owners across the country. Is this a turning point for property rights or just the beginning of a bigger legal battle?
