Trick or Treaty?

By Alanis Obamsawin

Film Synopsis

"This documentary examines the effects and legacy of Treaty No. 9 (1905), signed by the Government of Canada and Indigenous peoples in the James Bay area. The treaty had a significant impact on Aboriginal peoples, who were relocated to reserves as a result, allowing the natural resources both below and above ground to become the property of the Government of Canada."
