Why are treaties important today?
Treaties provide a framework for living together & for the sharing of traditional lands. Treaties protect Indigenous sovereignty & require governments to honour this relationship.

🔥 Exciting news! The @Canada_firecon on Oct 28 will feature a must-attend workshop: 'Transforming Fire Management through Indigenous Fire Stewardship' hosted by the FNWEP & the RedFire Lab. Join us from 10 AM - 5 PM and explore IFS strategies, policies, and best practices.
If the bill is passed, people could be charged under the Criminal Code for promoting hatred against Indigenous Peoples by condoning, justifying or downplaying the historical and lasting impact of residential schools says @LeahGazan

With wildfires intensifying due to #climatechange, adopting holistic management strategies is crucial. Watch & learn how one community in the Saskatchewan delta is utilizing Indigenous fire practices to rejuvenate ecosystems, which is benefiting communities, the land, & animals.
Crown officials behaved in “dishonorable” “egregious” and “shocking” ways for decades in their dealings with the Anishinaabe peoples living on the northern shores of Lake Superior, says Canada’s highest court by @Colinfreeze. https://t.co/wvirmaR4CL
It’s time to assert our sovereignty rights in the #wildfire response & prevention processes. The # of phone calls this week about the province not listening to communities & the consequences are outrageous @BruceRalston. Inclusion doesn’t work without giving up some control and empowering communities. #bcwildfire #nlakapamuxstrong
As fires become more frequent & severe, training more Indigenous Guardians in fire management and response could help improve community safety and reduce costs of wildfire evacuation. The latest from @Christiansonamy et al. explores the impacts. https://t.co/cNj5hVNoLq
As our territory burns again, I wonder when we can start speaking the truth about how colonial land management & economic values led us here & aren’t going to solve this. It’s not just climate change folks. You need only to look at historic photos to see how different our lands looked when we managed them. #wildfire #bcwildfire
This is insane - and then these companies try to push ‘shared responsibility’ or ‘whole of society’ approaches to reducing their potential shareholder losses 🤦🏻♀️
Nipissing First Nation Chief @Chief_S_McLeod, who told the AFN to never play a video of Poilievre ahead of residential school survivors in 2022, had this to say about his address to the assembly:
“You don’t come into our assembly and call us ‘our Indigenous People.’”
