Abstract

Recognition continues to grow both within Canada, as well as the wider worldwide community, of the unique issues facing Indigenous people within Canada’s justice system. We see this in the recent wholesale adoption by the Canadian Government of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, as well as the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action. This article examines the potential development of a system of Indigenous community courts as a way to end colonial suppression of Indigenous self-governance. The article suggests as a model for these courts the tribal courts in the United States, as a means by which Indigenous peoples can re-instate Indigenous law and legal principles.
设想土著社区法院在加拿大实现原住民司法
加拿大国内以及更广泛的世界社会继续认识到加拿大司法系统中土著人民面临的独特问题。我们在加拿大政府最近全面通过的《联合国土著人民权利宣言》以及真相与和解委员会的《行动呼吁》中看到了这一点。本文探讨了土著社区法院系统的潜在发展,以此结束殖民地对土著自治的压制。文章建议将美国的部落法院作为这些法院的模式,作为土著人民恢复土著法律和法律原则的一种手段。
