Richmond homeowners have a right to be ‘mad,’ experts say over Cowichan ruling | Global News

Amy Judd & Richard Zussman: The provincial government is seeking a stay in the BC Supreme Court Cowichan land title decision. This after Richmond residents had a heated meeting with the City about the future of their properties and ownership rights.

There is a lot of confusion and worry for landowners in Richmond following a public meeting on Tuesday night about the potential impacts of a major B.C. Supreme Court ruling involving the Cowichan Nation.

“There’s a lot of frustration, but I think people have every right to be mad,” Caroline Elliott with the Public Land Use Society told Global News.

“In fact, they have every reason to be outraged. This government’s actions in this regard have been secretive. They’ve been misleading. They have been counter to the public interest.”
