Abstract
The Supreme Court of Canada handed down two decisions in the summer of 2014 dealing with the rights of indigenous peoples: Tsilhqot'in Nation v British Columbia dealing with aboriginal title; and Grassy Narrows First Nation v Ontario (Natural Resources) dealing with a point of treaty interpretation. This paper examines the implications of these two decisions for the resources sector, both from the perspective of operators, but also to some degree from the perspective of indigenous communities who may wish to engage with the resources sector, both to develop their lands and resources and to ensure the protection of their traditional territories.
