Analyzing How the Ktunaxa Nations Case Might Have Been More Successful Using the Peoplehood Framework By Sampavy Mussa and Hannah Braha

We have created this podcast in light of our religious freedom course at Carleton University, taught by Dr Melanie Adrian. We created this podcast as a thought piece to discuss larger issues within the Canadian Legal system, addressing aboriginal beliefs and their interpretation within our courts. Inspired by the 2017 Supreme Court Ktunaxa case, we offer a resolution for possibly changing the outcome of future cases which deal with the object of belief and religious freedom.
After having the pleasure and opportunity to speak with Doctor Nicholas Shrubsole on his novel “What Has No Place, Remains: The Challenges for Indigenous Religious Freedom in Canada Today”, we realised that unless the legal system can be decolonized, and a fundamental change of the land-person relationship can occur, moving forward for cases such as this, the protection of religious freedom is more fruitful under the peoplehood framework.
