Industrial property owners ask B.C. Supreme Court to reopen Richmond Aboriginal title case

The owners of a major industrial property whose land has been swept up in a B.C. Supreme Court decision granting title to the Cowichan Nation announced Thursday they are asking the court to reopen the case.

Montrose Properties, which saw the court apply Aboriginal title over about 300 acres of its industrial properties, is arguing it should have been a party to litigation that has an impact on its holdings.
