Although the rights of native peoples of Canada have yet to be comprehensively defined in Canadian law, most native Canadians assert that their rights include the right not only to govern themselves and their land, but also to exercise ownership rights over movable cultural property—artifacts ranging from domestic implements to ceremonial costumes. ███
Native Canadians' perspective ·
Natives have right to own movable cultural property
Example: Domestic implements, ceremonial costumes.
Current law ·
Statute and common law puts ownership of movable property with current owners, not Native Canadians
