Stay current with the latest developments in Indigenous law and policy across Canada by joining Osler's Indigenous Law Insights, a monthly 30-minute webinar series designed for legal and business professionals.

In our January session, Richard King, partner and Co-Chair of the Regulatory, Indigenous, and Environmental Group, will explores how the honour of the Crown is engaged when governments enter contracts with Indigenous peoples. He also introduces a new "reconciliatory" approach to addressing damages from breaches of the honour of the Crown.

Additionally, Brodie Noga, associate, analyzes a recent landmark decision from the Ontario Court of Appeal, where Aboriginal interest in land overrode a fee simple title held by private landowners.

Each of our Indigenous Law Insights webinars provides timely and practical information on what these developments mean for your business.
