The provincial government is contacting landowners in Richmond, B.C., whose properties may be impacted by the recent decision that awarded aboriginal title to Cowichan Nation for approximately 750 acres of land.

BC Conservative MLA for Richmond-Queensborough Steve Kooner shared a flyer Nov. 9 on social media that he said is being circulated by the B.C. premier’s office to local residents to provide contact information for anyone with concerns about their property or mortgages in the wake of the Cowichan ruling.
