Whitefish Lake First Nation [Agricultural benefits pursuant to Treaty 8: historic claim]

In March 2004, the Commission accepted the Whitefish Lake First Nation’s request to hold an inquiry into its claim for agricultural benefits from the time of its adhesion to Treaty 8. In March 2005, Canada resumed negotiation with the First Nation on the contemporary claim. The inquiry into the claim for historic benefits was put into abeyance.
