Numbered Treaties The Numbered Treaties are historic agreements that affect the rights and identity of some First Nations in Canada The Royal Proclamation recognized First Nations’ rights to land, and established the principle of making treaties through peaceful negotiation First Nations wanted to share their lands and resources in peace Numbered Treaties to the First Nations are sacred and define them from past to future In the USA Natives and Americans fought violently (Little Big Horn)

Numbered Treaties Treaties were negotiated for many reasons Canada wanted to link from east to west… BC would not join confederation without the CPR Avoid War First Nations wanted to secure their future (small pox, social disorder, eradication of the buffalo) The Royal Proclamation

Numbered Treaties First Nations agreed to share their lands and resources in peace Canada’s government agreed to terms covering First Nations’ education, reserves, and money The terms differ from Treaty to Treaty

Numbered Treaties For First Nations, the Numbered Treaties are sacred, nation to nation agreements, and cannot be changed without their permission Not all First Nations people signed Treaties

Indian Act Created in 1876 The act allows the federal government to develop specific policies to administer Treaty rights to First Nations The act created “Indian Agents” who made individual decisions

Indian Act The act defines who is a “status Indian” with Treaty rights The act originally aimed to assimilate First Nations peoples The act defined how to conduct affairs It restricted their rights The act remains in force today
