Digital Saskatchewan History
There comes a point in history where we all wonder: "What gave them the right?" This is the question we explore in the history of Saskatchewan. By the time European settlement reached Saskatchewan the survival of Plains People was under huge pressure. The great buffalo herds that sustained them were disappearing fast and settlers came in their hundreds settling their territories as farmland. Many First Nations believed that the Numbered Treaties was an arm of help and support offered by the queen, but soon after they were signed representatives of the Canadian government began restricting their movement and implemented crippling limitations on their ability to farm successfully. As their situation turned desperate, some took the only step available to them – resistance.
