Land Claims
Historical and ongoing land claims involving Tsuut'ina Nation.
| Claim | Status | Last Update | Total Payments |
|---|---|---|---|
DND Lease Concerned leasing of 4,780 hectares of reserve lands for Department of National Defense use. | Settled | Settled through Negotiations Mar 1985 | $11.50M |
Calgary Irrigation Company Concerned expropriation of 107 acres of reserve land in June 1893. | Settled | Settled through Negotiations Apr 1997 | $3.94M |
1931 Surrender for Sale Alleged that both the surrender of land in 1913 and the surrender of land in 1931 were not valid because the federal government breached its fiduciary obligation to the First Nation due to the presence of duress, undue influence and negligent misrepresentation and because the surrender bargains were unconscionable. It is further alleged that the federal government failed to follow the terms and conditions associated with the 1913 surrender and unlawfully transferred approximately 193.5 acres of land in question to the City of Calgary in 1931. | Settled | Settled through Negotiations Jun 2013 | $6.87M |
Mineral Rights The FN seeks confirmation from Canada that the oil and gas and other mineral rights underlying the Glenmore Reservoir lands, lands, as well as the Priddis Trail, did not legally pass to the City of Calgary and that legal title to the mines and minerals continue to be vested in the Crown as reserve for its exclusive use and benefit. Alternatively, if the title to the mines and minerals was legally transferred to the City of Calgary, the Crown breached its fiduciary duty by failing to expressly reserve such interests from the surrender and sale of the reserve lands to the City of Calgary for the benefit of the FN. | Concluded | No Lawful Obligation Found Jan 2008 | - |
Priddis Trail The FN sought confirmation that the 10.23-acre portion of the Priddis Trail located within the lands surrendered in 1900, and sold to the City of Calgary in 1931, did not legally pass to the City and that the legal title to the Priddis Trail continues to be vested in the Crown as part of the reserve. The FN further alleged that, in light of the Osoyoos decision, the City of Calgary did not acquire any legal interest in the Priddis Trail lands because the FN surrendered only a limited right of way interest for only so long as these lands were used for road purposes. When the Priddis Trail land ceased to be used for road purposes, it was to revert to the Crown to be held as reserve land for the use and benefit of the FN. | Settled | Settled through Negotiations Jun 2013 | $6.97M |
1930 Surrender for Gravel Lease The FN alleged that the 1930 surrender for a gravel lease is invalid. Alternatively, if the surrender is valid, Canada breached a pre-surrender fiduciary duty to the FN by assigning a five year gravel lease in favour of Bennett & White Construction Company Limited to the City of Calgary without the consent of the FN or payment of any further compensation for the extraction of gravel for construction of the Glenmore Reservoir. | Settled | Settled through Negotiations Jun 2013 | $6.97M |
593.5 Mineral Rights Alleges the oil and gas and other mineral rights underlying the Glenmore Reservoir lands (593.5 acres), did not legally pass to the City of Calgary and that legal title to the mines and minerals continue to be vested in the Crown as reserve for the exclusive use and benefit of the FN. | Invited to Negotiate | Active Jan 2025 | - |
Glenmore 193.5 The Tsuut’ina Nation submits that the 193.5 acres of land surrender in 1913, failed to meet the minimum sale price under the 1913 Surrender for the 193.5 Lands, and not having obtained a new surrender or variation of the 1913 Surrender for those lands from the Nation, the 193.5 Lands’ transfer to the City of Calgary in 1931 was unlawful. | Invited to Negotiate | Active Jan 2025 | - |
Complete Priddis Trail Alleges that Canada breached its statutory and fiduciary duties regarding the taking of Tsuut’ina IR No. 145 lands for the Priddis Trail by illegally disposing of the original corridor, violating the terms of surrender, failing to account for the surrendered lands, taking additional lands, and failing to prevent trespass. | Under Assessment | Justice Department Preparing Legal Opinion Apr 2025 | - |
