 | | Still, the fact that three members of Canada's highest court viewed Nisga'a title as still <<b>bb>>in<b>bb>> existence was a major turn of events (and one which soon led the federal government to agree to negotiate where title had not been explicitly extinguished). |  | | It is a state of affairs we live with daily, and is institutionally validated and supported by the Constitutional arrangement which guarantees three seats on the Supreme Court of Canada to judges from Quebec who have experience with that Code. |  | | Further, tribal elders, who gained that status by virtue of their demonstrations of wisdom <<b>bb>>in<b>bb>> dealing with matters such as governance and justice, were denied those opportunities by the forced creation of Band Councils, and the imposed paramountcy of a foreign justice system (Jackson, 1992; Ross, 1992). |
