R v Guerin ''R v Guerin'' () 2 S.C.R. 335 was a landmark Supreme Court of Canada decision on aboriginal rights where the Court first stated that the government has a fiduciary duty towards the First Nations of Canada and established aboriginal title to be a ''sui generis'' right. ==Background== The Musqueam Indian band held roughly of prime land in the Vancouver area. In 1958, the federal government, on behalf of the band, made a deal with the Shaughnessy Heights Golf Club to lease of the land in order to build a golf club. However, the actual terms of the agreement between the government and the club were not those that were told to the band. In 1970, the band discovered the true terms and protested on the basis that the government had a duty to properly explain the full extent of the deal. At trial, the court held that the Crown had breached their trust with the band and awarded the Musqueam ten million dollars. This ruling was overturned by the Federal Court of Appeal. The matter was then considered by the Supreme Court of Canada.
