During question period, members asked about the Cowichan court decision in British Columbia and its effect on private land titles. Conservative members said homeowners need certainty about their land ownership and pressed the government to cancel a 2019 litigation directive they said instructs federal lawyers not to defend private property rights. Liberal ministers said the case is still in active litigation so they would not discuss legal strategy, noted the government has appealed, stated that property rights are being defended and are not at risk, and said Conservative claims are creating fear. A Liberal member also said the Musqueam agreements are public and do not deal with land title.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
