Rejected offer pushes 1850 Robinson Superior case to court
The Robinson Superior First Nations north of Thunder Bay and Wawa reject a 3.6 billion compensation settlement for use of Indigenous lands. Ontario Superior Court Justice Patricia Hennessy will be asked to impose a just figure in June after months of talks. Gull Bay Chief Wilfred King cites ignored economic evidence and intergenerational poverty as the Governments’ impact. Annuities dating back 150 years remain unchanged, with a separate negotiation needed after past compensation is settled.
