Canadian Indian rights and treaties . : R32-439/1974E-PDF

"Indian treaties in Canada initially took the form of Peace and Friendship agreements. The Grand Settlement of 1700-1701 at Montréal, for instance, was a peace treaty negotiated between the Iroquois and the French in which the Iroquois agreed to remain neutral in any future imperial conflicts between France and Britain in North America. The treaty-making process in Canada was not truly formalized, however, until 1725 with the signing of an agreement between several tribes in New England and Nova Scotia and colonial authorities in which the Indians recognized the sovereignty of His Britannic Majesty; and agreed to observe the peace and obey the law"--p. 1.
