Treaties

Welcome to the website on the numbered treaties created by students in HIST 2783: Canada since 1867 at Acadia University.

For this assignment, the class was broken up into 10 groups of 6 people each.  Each group member was responsible for answering one of the following questions:

1. Why was a treaty required in this time and place?
2. What First Nations were included in this treaty?
3. What did these people want from the treaty process?
4. What did the government want from the treaty process?
5. What were the treaties core provisions?
6. What is the status of the treaty today?

In addition to answering these questions, the students were also required to deliver a 3-5 minute presentation to the class about their treaty.
