The Haida Nation and government of British Columbia recently signed the Gaayhllxid/Gíihlagalgang “Rising Tide” Haida Title Lands Agreement, which recognizes and affirms the Haida Nation’s title to the archipelago of Haida Gwaii.
Indigenous scholars have described the agreement as “historic” and “an inspiration to Indigenous Peoples across Canada and around the world.” It’s approach to title departs from the racist assumptions underlying colonization.
