The City of Richmond, B.C., is warning homeowners that the title of their property could be compromised by a recent B.C. Supreme Court decision that granted land title rights to a First Nation based on historical ownership.
“In Richmond, homeowners are being told that their properties may be at risk following a decision granting control of land to an Indigenous band,” B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad said in an Oct. 18 post on X, in which he included a photo of a notice distributed to Richmond residents.
