aboriginal law
阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s bora laskin faculty of law is one the first law schools in canada to include stand alone mandatory courses on indigenous legal issues in its curriculum. we believe that it is vital that our 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 are aware of not only the law generally, but how that law impacts on aboriginal peoples. to that end we believe that it is important for our 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to better understand aboriginal peoples and their perspectives on the law. therefore, aboriginal law is a cornerstone of our curriculum. in first year, we have a mandatory semester course, indigenous legal traditions. in second year, we have a mandatory full year course, aboriginal law.
we also incorporate indigenous legal issues – such as gladue principles in the context of criminal sentencing or the laws pertaining to the wills of status indians – throughout our other courses.
finally, we bring alive aboriginal culture and history through experiential learning in our first year course, aboriginal perspectives, and through our speaker series and other events.
we work closely with local aboriginal community leaders and have signed an aboriginal protcol agreement to "establish a strong, meaningful and respectful working relationship regarding the faculty of law".
