Mary Culbertson, Treaty Commissioner of Saskatchewan is pleased to see a new website and flag for the people of Treaty 2.

Members of the Treaty territory and their leadership took some time to meet with Culbertson on a recent trip to Ottawa to share their exciting news. They also made further plans to meet again soon and work together on shared histories and Treaty education.

The Treaty Commissioner shared this fact.
“Even through the Chiefs of three bands were signatories to Treaty 4, their people were settled within Treaty 2 territory; White Bear and Ocean Man/Osiya-mani/Kihcikamiwiyin/Kitchi-kah-me-win reserves were settled by Plains Cree, Saulteaux, whereas Assiniboine, Pheasant Rump/Sio-nide and Long Lodge reserved were settled by Assiniboine. 

It’s interesting to see that within the maps of the territories you will notice that there are Treaty 4 signatory bands in the Treaty 2 Territory.”
