Abstract

Located on the Garden River CP Rail Bridge with its message “THIS IS INDIAN LAND,” serves as a powerful reminder that these lands belong to a First Nation. While the sign may literally rest on Indian land, it speaks to the reality often forgotten by mainstream society, that it exists on lands currently or once owned by various First Nations. This collection of articles about the 1850 treaties seeks to remind and engage people in a conversation about the lands and waters they share.
