This concern points at Section 8.1 of British Columbia's Interpretation Act, added in 2021, which directs courts to interpret provincial laws consistently with UNDRIP where possible. Section 8.1 is the mechanism DRIPA was designed to create — and it passed the BC Legislature by a unanimous 87–0 vote in 2019, with every party, including John Rustad, voting yes. It is not a 'strike down any law' power. Courts still apply the same constitutional and administrative-law tests they always have, with UNDRIP added as one interpretive lens among many. Before Gitxaała, the same courts regularly struck down laws under section 35, the Charter, and other doctrines — that is how common-law systems have always worked. In direct response to the uncertainty Gitxaała raised, Premier Eby proposed a three-year suspension of the interpretive provisions while the Supreme Court of Canada hears the appeal. The question is being actively addressed, not ignored.
