| 520 | |a"The written treaties between the First Nations and the Crown have frequently been the subject of litigation in Canadian courts. These treaties were drafted by the Crown's representatives and it is the contention of the Indian beneficiaries that the treaties, as written, do not correspond with their meaning as understood by the Indian parties. In order to understand the Indian concerns regarding the terms of the treaties we will consider how Indian people interpret them. We will then explore the status of treaties within domestic Canadian law, examine that law's limitations, and finally, propose reforms for correcting those limitations. It is contended that since the Indian laws, cultures, customs, and methods of record-keeping have rarely been taken into consideration by the Canadian courts, the Canadian law relating to the status and nature of oral promises in Indian treaties remains outstanding and poorly developed"--Intro., p. 1. |
