| Decision: |
Appeal from a lower court order refusing to declare that the Claimants were entitled to compensation. The Claimants were owners of several Crown-granted mineral claims in an area that was later established as a provincial park. In 1973, government policy prevented the Claimants from accessing their mineral claims. The court held that the Claimants were entitled to compensation pursuant to the Lands Clauses Act, R.S.B.C. 1960, c. 209. |
