I can certainly do that, but as I think I said in the opening remarks, and you've just confirmed it, the crown is no ordinary fiduciary, and in any circumstance it is actually having to act for all Canadians, not just aboriginal people. How that actually plays out in the balancing.... It's a much-beloved concept in aboriginal law that aboriginal rights are on a spectrum and that in a sense the nature of the duty and how the balancing occurs is on a bit of a spectrum.
In the case of Wewaykum, which was considered before a reserve was created, there was a greater balancing required between the interests of non-aboriginal people and the aboriginal groups concerned. As the reserve is created, and then beyond that you move to particular transactions related to the reserve and the disposal of land, there is less of a need to balance, so that the actual duty on the crown is closer to that of what I call a “private law fiduciary”. There isn't the same need to balance interests, so the crown can simply act in the best interests of the first nation.
But even at that end, the Supreme Court has been prepared to recognize that some balancing needs to be done.
