L'Acadie, dats for me!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_VautourIn 1998, Jackie Vautour, his wife Yvonne and their son Roy and Ron were arrested for illegally harvesting shellfish in the park. In 1999, they were convicted under the Law on National Parks of Canada. They were exonerated on appeal, and were compensated. Jackie and one of his sons then got a second trial and invoked their ancestral rights. The trial, scheduled to begin in 2002, was repeatedly postponed until 2006. In 2008, Jackie Vautour announced the discovery of evidence that they had never been legally expropriated. In 2009, he returned to court, defended by lawyer Robert Rideout. His defense is based on the assumption that the ancient inhabitants of Kouchibouguac are Métis (i.e., they descend from both Mi'kmaq and early Europeans settlers), and therefore his clients have an aboriginal right to harvest clams, according to the Canadian constitution.
According to historian Alan MacEachern, the Jackie Vautour case has changed the history of national parks in Canada, and how the land is expropriated. According to Professor MacEachern, Parks Canada has especially focused on opening parks in northern Canada, because there are fewer residents. The law now prohibits Parks Canada from expropriating residents to create a park. (Since the land was expropriated by the province and not subject to federal laws, could the same type of expropriation take place?)
