Between 1869 and 1877 the government of Canada negotiated Treaties
One through Seven with the Indigenous peoples of the Great Plains.
Many historians argue that the negotiations suffered from cultural
misunderstandings between the treaty commissioners and Indigenous
chiefs, but newly uncovered eyewitness accounts show that the
Canadian government had a strategic plan to deceive over the
"surrender clause" and land sharing. According to Sheldon
Krasowski's research, Canada understood that the Cree, Anishnabeg,
Saulteaux, Assiniboine, Siksika, Piikani, Kainaa, Stoney and Tsuu
T'ina nations wanted to share the land with newcomers-with
conditions-but were misled over governance, reserved lands, and
resource sharing. Exposing the government chicanery at the heart of
the negotiations, No Surrender demonstrates that the land remains
Indigenous.
