The Natural Resources Transfer Agreement (NRTA) has been a persistent issue, particularly affecting Treaty Rights holders and impacting both political and environmental aspects for people in northern Canada. A significant barrier to the economic and political prosperity of Canada's Indigenous Peoples is the transfer of lands and resources that occurred without input from the local communities.
Under the leadership of Grand Chief Brian Hardlotte, the Prince Albert Grand Council has tasked the Education Department with collecting narratives from various elders about how the NRTA has affected hunters and trappers in northern Saskatchewan. This initiative aims to capture the socio-political impacts of the Saskatchewan-Federal agreement on the Indigenous peoples of northern Saskatchewan.This book - the first book in this series - explores the history of the NRTA, tracing its roots to the Catholic Church's policy of Manifest Destiny. Subsequent books feature stories from the Woodland Cree and Athabasca peoples, who have first hand experience of the early implementation of the NRTA by Game Wardens in First Nations communities. These stories are a crucial part of the reconciliation process as Canada confronts its colonial past, and they serve to guide reconciliation through truth-telling.
