Did You Know?
The Treaty of Paris, signed on February 10, 1763, ended the Seven Years' War and France ceded all of its territories in mainland North America to Britain. Also, it resulted in the Royal Proclamation, which was a crucial moment in Canadian Aboriginal History.
In The News
Supreme Court of Canada - Daniels v. Canada (Indian Affairs and Northern Development) - On April 14th 2016 the Supreme Court of Canada declared that Métis and non-Status Indians are 'Indians' under s.91(24) of the Constitution Act, 1867. The impact of this case on Red Sky Méits Independent Nation (RSMIN) is yet to be ascertained. This case has the potential to provide legal rights to the Métis as Aboriginal people and allows the Federal Government to deal directly with Métis communities.
