The Numbered Treaties (1871-1921)
Canada's westward expansion after 1867 was not into empty land. The Numbered Treaties, 11 agreements signed between the Crown & First Nations from 1871-1921 allowed it. Foundational, deeply complex & controversial, they cover vast territories -- Ontario to the Rockies. Essential to understand Canada's creation & relationship with Indigenous peoples. #Canada #CreationOfCanada #IndigenousHistory #Treaties

The Charlottetown Conference (1864)
The Charlottetown Conference began amidst chaos. A visiting circus had booked all hotels, with Prov. of Canada delegates having no rooms & little fanfare. A lone PEI representative, William Henry Pope, rowed out to greet their ship himself. Despite this comical welcome, the monumental discussions that followed laid the very foundation for the Dominion of #Canada. #CreationOfCanada #History #Confederation
