Professor Sanders, too, fears that the Federal Government and certain provincial Governments have taken Indian aboriginal rights to...

Orders of the Day — Canada Bill (17 Feb 1982)

Mr Bruce George: ...one hope that the Indians will receive a little more from the courts? They can expect very little; an analysis of court judgments shows a long history of powerlessness on aboriginal rights such as hunting and fishing and on treaties. The Canadian Parliament has rendered the judiciary almost powerless to protect Indian rights. Lord Denning testified to the importance of the treaties signed...
