I don't know about Canada but in the US we get title insurance as purchasing the land doesn't grant indefeasible title.
It's not like this issue is unique to First Nations and treaty rights.

Typically policies exclude claims that could have been discovered by due diligence. Given that aboriginal title claims are a known legal risk in BC, insurers can argue that homeowners should have been aware of this possibility. See Delgamuukw v. British Columbia (1997).
