It includes rights that now exists by ways of land claim agreements, it does not specify how these rights will be acquired, what is a right, when is it a right. It is good because there is a lot of room for protection of rights: but it is also bad because you can say this is not actually a right it is based on interpretation. It is still very important when making claims and entering into negotiations. It is fundamental in a way that treaty relationships are fundamental. In 1992, instead of provinces it is put into a national referendum. this is because they still did not know what would happen to first nations in the province. in 1991, rcap is proposed.
