The Numbered Treaties (1871-1921) Canada's westward expansion after 1867 was not into empty land. The Numbered Treaties, 11 agreements signed between the Crown & First Nations from 1871-1921 allowed it. Foundational, deeply complex & controversial, they cover vast territories -- Ontario to the Rockies. Essential to understand Canada's creation & relationship with Indigenous peoples. #Canada #CreationOfCanada #IndigenousHistory #Treaties https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbered_Treaties
