Canada in the Making - Aboriginals: Treaties & Relations. PDF Version | Word Version | Rich Text Format | Text Format Curriculum Links Since the time of European First Contact, the course of Aboriginal history in Canada has been deeply altered by relations with Europeans and the laws they imposed on Aboriginals - laws like the Indian Act.
Furthermore, major and minor treaties played a significant and important role in charting the course of European - Aboriginal relations within the country. This section of the Canada in the Making site will look at these treaties and laws, and the events that preceded and followed these changes. First Nations Maps.

William Connolly was an apprentice clerk in the North West Company as the 19th century was dawning, embarking on a career in the fur trade that would let him die a wealthy man 62 years later.
At age 17 he met and married a Métis Cree girl named Miyo Nipiy, stepdaughter of an influential chief. They had six children together. In 1832, having clawed his way up the NWC corporate ladder, he moved to Montreal, disavowed his first marriage and married his second cousin in a Catholic church. After his death, his son by the first marriage sued for his inheritance — and won.
William Connolly’s chequered domestic history matters to us now for just one reason: it proves that in Canada, long after colonization was well advanced, Indigenous law and customs (marriage customs, for example) were alive enough to be seen by the courts as a valid body of common law. It’s an important point to remember as the reconciliation project moves forward. Still, the bylaw power isn’t useless. Aboriginal and Treaty Rights ~ Walking Together.

Why would I do this? I am routinely involved in conferences as a speaker, exhibitor, participant, and on occasion, as a conference organizer. I hear many speakers and a variety of presentation styles and can report that some speakers get it right, some make mistakes but manage to get along, and some don’t fair well at all. The speakers who do it well do protocol, use the correct and respectful terminology, and know what to say and what not to say. Those who struggle, and sometimes they don’t make it at all, struggle with one or all of the above. What follows are four tips to help you with your next presentation at an event that includes First Nations people in the audience. . #1: Words have impact. The first thing to know is that words have an impact on people. . #2: Get the terminology right. Reconciling Thanksgiving. “. . .
Reconciliation is about establishing and maintaining a mutually respectful relationship between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples in this country. In order for that to happen, there has to be awareness of the past, an acknowledgement of the harm that has been inflicted, atonement for the causes, and action to change behaviour.” [1] This article is intended to bring awareness to the past and provide “some food for thought” about the Thanksgiving narrative many of us have been raised to believe. Note: In this article, we use the term “tribes” as that is the terminology used in the United States. History lessons are increasingly being examined for narrative accuracy.
