Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to thank the witnesses for joining us today.
I'm actually an alumni of UBC law school, but unfortunately, Dr. McIvor, I wasn't able to take your class when I graduated over a decade ago.
You mentioned some very interesting things in your opening that I want to bring up, particularly around questions about the rule of law and the need to unpack that.
I think one of the really challenging things we need to discuss as part of the study is that there are very different perspectives on what land ownership means. For many indigenous cultures, land is owned collectively. Obviously, for European countries and western countries, it's owned individually.
I was hoping you could maybe expand on how that complicates some of the discussions that we're going to have as part of the study. What are some of the ways forward we can have on that, particularly when we're thinking about things like legal pluralism?
