SCC decides non-Canadian aboriginals free to hunt in Canada

[Byker]

"TORONTO - The Supreme Court of Canada ruled Friday that Indigenous people
who are not Canadian citizens and who do not live in Canada can have
constitutionally protected rights in the country if they belong to groups
that are modern-day successors of ones that once occupied territory there.

In the U.S., you must be at least one-sixteenth Indian to qualify as an
"Indian". I'm one-quarter Cherokee, so does that mean I can go moose hunting
without Canuckistani gubment interference?

No, because the Cherokees were never in Canada.
