Summary
An amendment was made to Bill 37, regarding Canadian Pacific Railway lands, clarifying that the CPR could not be given land for the construction of the railroad for which Aboriginal title had not been extinguished by the government.
Implications
Land title had to be negotiated between the Canadian Government and First Nations before the Canadian Pacific Railway could interfere on these lands for the purpose of railroad construction.
