Facts: The case involves Reynold John Bonneau and Mildred Rose Bonneau against the British Columbia government, focusing on a dispute over land trespassed by a provincial highway realignment in 1964. Negotiations started around 2017 to resolve the trespass issue, influenced by the Indian Act and land surveys.

Issue: The main legal issue was whether a "without prejudice" letter sent by the Province’s counsel during settlement negotiations was covered by settlement privilege, thereby making it inadmissible in court.

Court’s Ruling: The court ruled that the letter was covered by settlement privilege because it was part of ongoing negotiations aimed at resolving the dispute, despite not containing specific settlement terms. Therefore, the letter was inadmissible in the trial.

Costs/Damages Awarded: The document does not specify costs or damages awarded to any party. The focus was on the admissibility of the letter under settlement privilege, not on determining costs or damages.
