		The proclamation established requirements that had to be met before aboriginal land could be purchased, including one that the purchase must be approved by a meeting of all members of the people selling the land.
		Thus, the boundary line established by the proclamation (often called the proclamation line) was not intended to be a permanent boundary between white and Indian lands (as is sometimes believed), but rather a temporary boundary which could be extended further west in an orderly, lawful manner.
		After the American Revolutionary War, the Royal Proclamation of 1763 became a dead letter in the United States, but continued in force in Rupert's Land, which later became part of Canada.

		Insofar as it related to Aboriginal peoples, the intent of the Royal Proclamation of 1763 was to facilitate the continuation of British settlement in North America while at the same time avoiding war with the Indian nations and conflict over land on the frontier (Boldt, 1993, 37).
		The proclamation affirmed that title to all lands was vested in the British Crown, but declared that any land the Crown had not yet acquired by treaty or purchase was to be reserved for the Indians.
		The proclamation thus recognized that Indian peoples had the right to occupy and use the land which they had not ceded or sold to Britain, and furthermore established that this right could only be extinguished by the Crown [glossary] in return for reasonable compensation (Dickason, 1997, 161-62).

		The Royal Proclamation of 1763, as a law of constitutional significance and manifestly universal application, it is argued, applied to British Columbia, if not as of its enactment in 1763, then either upon the assertion of British Sovereignty over that area or by virtue of the Colonial Laws Validity Act, 1865.
		Further it is argued that the proclamation enjoyed the force and effect of an Imperial statute in the colonies to which it applied.
		In order to understand fully the import of the Royal Proclamation in the colonies it is necessary to understand British constitutional rules governing the nature and exercise of the Sovereign's prerogative legislative and executive powers in newly acquired territories and the rules governing the Imperial law to which the colonies are subject.

		In 1763, the Royal Proclamation was created to integrate New France into the British Empire in North American.
		The Royal Proclamation hints at the reason: it notes that British interests were, prior to 1763, responsible for "great fraud and abuses" in obtaining land from Aboriginals that had caused the latter "great dissatisfaction".
		Thus, they ensured that any future negotiation with the Aboriginals was to be in done in public by representatives of the British crown, and that the final results of such negotiations would be recorded in written treaties.

	REGINA v. DERRIKSAN
		Counsel for the appellant's argument is based on the premise that the Indian tribes of British Columbia acquired aboriginal title to the lands which the various tribes used and occupied for generations in the past and that one attribute of that aboriginal title is the right to hunt and fish on tribal lands.
		The wording of the Proclamation indicated that it was intended to include the lands west of the Rocky Mountains.
		Although I think that it is clear that Indian title in British Columbia cannot owe its origin to the Proclamation of 1763, the fact is that when the settlers came, the Indians were there, organized in societies and occupying the lands as their forefathers had done for centuries.
