flag Canada recognizes Haida people's title over Haida Gwaii, ending decades-long legal battle.

flag Canada has recognized the Aboriginal title of the Haida people over the Haida Gwaii archipelago in British Columbia, marking the first such recognition by the federal government through negotiations. flag The Big Tide Haida Title Lands Agreement grants the Haida inherent legal rights over the islands' lands, freshwater bodies, and foreshores, following a four-decade legal battle that started with a logging dispute. flag This historic agreement, which will transition Crown-title land to the Haida, aims to take a sustainable approach to the land and sea, and will require a five-year transition period and legislative changes.
