Treaty 6 is an agreement made in 1876 between the Crown of Canada and various Indigenous nations, primarily the Cree and Saulteaux peoples. This treaty aimed to establish peaceful relations and outline land rights, allowing Indigenous communities to continue their traditional ways of life while also permitting European settlers to use the land for agriculture and development. The treaty covers areas in present-day Alberta and Saskatchewan. It includes provisions for the protection of Indigenous rights, such as hunting and fishing, and promises of support from the government, including education and health services.
