In 1958, the federal government leased part of the small Musqueam Reserve in Vancouver to an exclusive golf club at below market value. When the band members discovered this in 1970, they initiated legal action. Their tenacity led to the 1984 decision in Guerin v. The Queen, whereby the Supreme Court of Canada held that the government has a fiduciary duty towards Indigenous peoples. Jim Reynolds, who served as one of the legal counsel for the Musqueam, provides an in-depth analysis of this landmark case and its impact on Canadian law, politics, and society. By recognizing that the Musqueam had enforceable legal rights, the Guerin case changed the relationship between governments and Indigenous peoples from one of wardship to one based on legal rights. It was a seismic decision."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 610 10 $a Canada. $b Supreme Court. 610 17 $a Canada. $b Supreme Court. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00512507 650 0 $a Coast Salish Indians $x Legal status, laws, etc. $z Vancouver. $z Vancouver. 650 0 $a Coast Salish Indians $x Land tenure $z Vancouver. $z Vancouver. 650 0 $a Coast Salish Indians $z Canada $x Government relations. 651 0 $a Musqueam First Nation. 651 7 $a British Columbia $z Vancouver. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211882 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 651 7 $a Musqueam First Nation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01787812 776 08 $i Online version: $a Reynolds, James I. $t From wardship to rights. $d Vancouver ; Toronto : UBC Press, 2020 $z 9780774864589 $z 9780774864589 $w (OCoLC)1139520042 830 0 $a Landmark cases in Canadian law. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20210721015531.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E9315F7AC7F211EAB1F2873797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
