Quality Evidence And Consent-based Decision-making – Indigenous Law Insights June 2022 (Webinar)

The recent decision in Reece v. Canada, 2022 BCSC 865 demonstrates the importance of quality evidence in a case. British Columbia is also the first province to adopt the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples into law and the province recently entered into its first consent-based decision-making agreement under the law. The Reece case and the consent-based decision-making agreement were the main subjects of discussion during Osler's monthly Indigenous Law Insights webinar series, hosted by Isabelle Crew, associate, Litigation; Regulatory, Environmental, Indigenous and Land; and with presentations by David Rankin, partner, Litigation; and Sean Sutherland, associate, Litigation.
