Description
The Papaschase Band brought an action against the Government of Canada for breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent and malicious behaviour and treaty breach dating to 1886 under Treaty 6. The Crown sought to have the action dismissed based on the Limitations of Actions Act, R.S.A., 1980, c. L-15, s.4. The Crown was successful in having the case dismissed; overturning the Alberta Court of Appeal ruling, thus restoring the Chamber's judge decision despite never having completed the discovery process.
