Haida Gwaii (formerly the Queen Charlotte Islands) in British Columbia.

Jim Csek sits down with Geoff Moyse, KC to break down the evolving legal landscape around Aboriginal title in B.C., comparing the long-standing recognition of Haida title in Haida Gwaii with the recent Richmond land-title ruling that shocked homeowners and raised national concern.

Moyse explains how the Haida Gwaii precedent differs, why the Richmond ruling represents a major shift in private-land vulnerability, and what future appeals could mean for landowners, industry, and governments. The discussion highlights overlapping claims, legal timelines, and the growing uncertainty around property rights throughout British Columbia.
