Abstract

"This text provides both an introduction to aboriginal law in Canada and an extensive collection of primary materials. It addresses basic issues such as status, aboriginal rights, constitutional frameworks, treaties and land claims, fiduciary obligations, and self-government provisions, and considers developments such as the Supreme Court's decisions in Badger, Van der Peet, Delgamuukw, Corbiere, and Marshall, and the final report of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples."--WorldCat.org.
