The Wabanaki are the title holders of their land. “A series of treaties known as the Peace and Friendship Treaties were signed between the British Crown and the Mi’kmaq, Maliseet and Passamaquoddy between 1725 – 1779.
The treaties from the ancestral lands of the Wabanaki people are the oldest and strongest in all of Canada because in these treaties’ lands were never surrendered.These treaties were concluded in an effort to encourage military alliances the First Nations and to encourage cooperation in what are today the Maritime provinces and the Gaspé region of Quebec. The Peace and Friendship Treaties are unique in Canada in that they predate confederation and were negotiated by the Crown in an attempt to solidify relationships with Aboriginal groups. These treaties did not require Aboriginal communities to surrender any right to land lands and resources.
