B.C. to appeal landmark Aboriginal title ruling over land in Metro Vancouver

British Columbia's attorney general says the government will appeal a landmark Aboriginal title ruling that grants a claim by the Cowichan Nation over land on the Fraser River in Metro Vancouver.

Niki Sharma says the government strongly disagrees with last week's B.C. Supreme Court decision granting fishing rights and Aboriginal title over the parcel of land on Lulu Island in Richmond, B.C.
