Camp Ipperwash .: R5-650/1996E-PDF
"Camp Ipperwash (the former Stony Point Reserve) was appropriated from the Kettle and Stony Point First Nation by the federal government under the War Measures Act in 1942 for use as a training base. In 1942, the Chippewas of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation received approximately $50,000 in compensation for land, improvements and relocation. This appropriation affected about 15 families.

A 1981 Order in Council committed the government to return the lands when no longer needed for military purposes. In 1982, the federal government also reached an agreement with the Chippewas of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation, which provided compensation in the amount of $2.5 million for the value of the land and interest accrued since the date of the 1942 appropriation.
