Metis people originally settled in Green Lake because of the pattern of development of the fur trade . Green Lake was a major nexus on the fur trade transportation system, which encouraged Metis settlement and community development . After Confederation, when the national policy generated regional differentiation through uneven development, Green Lake remained under fur-trade domination . National policy expansion reached Green Lake with surveys in 1909 and 1911, replacing fur-trade property relations with the Dominion Lands Act. The surveys revealed Green Lake as a fur trade settlement with property claims consistent with the fur trade economy. Prior treatment of such claims under national policy regulations promised recognition of Metis claims based on prior settlement. Economic recession and World War I led to the abatement of national policy expansion. As a result, the department postponed action on the Metis claims until renewed interest in national policy settlement . Legislation passed in 1919 provided new direction to departmental consideration of the Green Lake claims. The only remnant of recognition of fur trade settlement was reference to 1908 legislation requiring occupancy at the time of treaty . The department subsequently disposed of Metis claims by offering most claimants only a right to purchase claimed land . Departmental response to Metis claims at Green Lake was inadequate on several grounds. It failed to consider adequately property relations extant from the fur trade economy. It acted without due consideration for established precedents associated with the national policy. It acted ultra vires to carry out and justify a restrictive and mean spirited response to Metis claims. The retroactive nature of 1908 legislation unfairly penalized claimants in the Treaty Six area. The department's limitation of the eligibility of claimants by constrictive criteria was compounded by its failure to examine seriously the evidence of Metis settlement that would have met such criteria . At the time of the 1930 transfer of land administration to the prairie provinces, the land claims of the Metis settlers of Green Lake remained unsatisfied . 11 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my appreciation to my supervisor, Dr. F. Laurie Barron, for his patience, advice, editorial work and his encouragement . I want to thank my committee members: Dr. David E. Smith, for sharing his knowledge of Canadian government and his always insightful conversation ; Dr. James B . Waldram, for his insistence that theory, advocacy and research can share the same platform ; Dr. Frank Tough, for his critical comments, his stimulating discussion of economic history, and the financial support he has arranged as Head of the Department of Native Studies through provision of sessional lecturer positions. I also thank my external examiner, Dr . David Miller, for his attention to my work and his willingness to participate in the oral defence of this thesis. I have been fortunate to receive and wish to acknowledge financial support from the University of Saskatchewan in the form of a College of Arts and Sciences Honours Scholarship and a College of Graduate Studies and Research Master's Thesis Scholarship. My respectful appreciation goes to Dr . Howard Adams for his dedicated instruction in Metis history during my undergraduate studies . As well, I would feel remiss if I did not acknowledge Professor Ken Hatt's original work on the Green Lake land claims for the Native Council of Canada : his blazes helped me find my way through the forest of files . I also greatly appreciated the forbearance of the staff of the Saskatchewan Archives Board as they suffered my sometimes manic requests for evermore files and photocopying : thank you to D'Arcy Hande, Maureen Fox and especially Nadine Small for her interest . As well, I was fortunate to be able to share my troubles and my ideas with my contemporary in the graduate program, Rudolfo Pino-Robles. There can also be no doubt about all the teaching done by the questions of my many students over the past few years, especially those from the Saskatchewan Urban Native Teacher Education Program in Prince Albert. Thank you all. Finally I am grateful to Murdine McCreath, whose support and encouragement helped me complete this project, and her friend, now also my friend, Kathy Hodgson-Smith . ui TABLE OF CONTENTS PERMISSION TO USE ABSTRACT ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 111 TABLE OF CONTENTS iv LIST OF TABLES vi LIST OF FIGURES vu INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER ONE THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF METIS SETTLEMENT AT GREEN LAKE, 1670-1870 The lay of the land 4 'First contact' : Pedlar/HBC competition moves inland 8 Holding the fort: NWC/HBC competition in Green Lake 12 Green Lake and the BBC monopoly 16 CHAPTER TWO THE NATIONAL POLICY AND GREEN LAKE 28 Uneven development: the east-west articulation 29 Uneven development: the north-south articulation 36 Uneven development and the Metis Resistance 38 CHAPTER THREE THE NATIONAL POLICY TURNS NORTH 46 Factors leading to the surveys 47 Baseline surveys, 1909-10 51 The surveys of 1911-12 55 CHAPTER FOUR METIS SETTLEMENT AT GREEN LAKE, 1911-12 67 CHAPTER FIVE THE DECADE OF DELAY, 1912-1922 90 The lack of response : 1912-1919 93 Defining the options: the Miles survey claimants, 1920-1922 102 CHAPTER SIX DISPOSITION OF METIS LAND CLAIMS: 1923-1930 114 Preparing for the disposition 114 The disposition of the claims 118 CONCLUSIONS 135 iv BIBLIOGRAPHY 142 APPENDIX A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES, 1912 149 The Laliberte family 149 The Morin family 152 The Aubichon family 154 The Sinclair family 157 The De(s)rocher family 158 Annie and Napoleon Girard 158 The Kennedy family 159 The Merasti and Lafleur families 159 Non-Aboriginal residents 159 v LIST OF TABLES Table 4.1 : Birth and settlement data 68 Table 4.2 : Occupational data 71 Table 4.3: Work-force data 73 Table 4.4 : Agricultural/animal husbandry data 74 Table 4.5: Fixed capital assets 76 Table 4.6: Number and ages of children 78 Table 6.1 : Summary of dispositions of Metis claims 119 Table A. 1 : Tentative family groupings, 1912 150 vi LIST OF FIGURES Fig. 1 .1 : The northwestern boundary of Rupert's Land Fig. 1 .2: The ChurchilllSaskatchewan/Athabasca Divides 7 Fig. 3 .1 : Portion of the map of the Crean Expedition, 1908 52 Fig. 3 .2: Powell Survey preliminary map, 1911 57 Fig. 5 .1 : Plan of Green Lake Settlement, 1915 96 Fig. 6.1 : Annotated plan of Green Lake Settlement, 1923 116 vii INTRODUCTION In the negotiations leading up to the Manitoba Act of 1870, Prime Minister John A . Macdonald chided the Metis for wanting benefits "fitting for civilised men" while also claiming "the privileges granted to Indians ."' One Red River delegate to the negotiations, Father N.J. Ritchot, replied that "because these settlers wish to be treated like other subjects of Her Majesty," it did not follow that "those among them who have a right as descendants of Indians should be obliged to lose those rights ."' Ritchot's resistance eventually resulted in the set-aside of 1 .4 million acres of land for the children of the Metis and the subsequent identification of scrip payments as satisfaction of Metis Aboriginal title . Consequently, most contemporary discussion of Metis land claims revolves around the issue of Aboriginal title and the efficacy of the scrip process in relieving the Crown of the burden of Metis Aboriginal title to land . While not denying the importance of Aboriginal title to Metis land claims, this thesis is not concerned with land claims arising out of Aboriginal title . Rather, it studies Metis claims to land based on settlement, that most important element of what John A . Macdonald would have held to be the qualities of "civilised men ." Macdonald had, after all, conceded Canadian recognition of claims to land by the original settlers just before chiding the Metis for claiming further land rights based on Aboriginal title . Administration of land became the responsibility of the Department of the Interior, which operated within the context of the larger set of policies gathered under the rubric of the national policy.

The contemporary written docu- mentation about them has come from one side of the treaty process. Historians add information from such disciplines as First Nations Tradi- tional Knowledge and Oral History to draw as complete a picture as possible. Now, we have an additional source of written contemporary information, Chief Pasqua’s recently rediscovered pictographs showing the nature of Treaty Four and its initial implementation. Pasqua’s ac- count, as contextualized here, adds significantly to our knowledge of the western numbered treaty process. The pictographs give voice to Chief Pasqua’s knowledge. Les traités conclus avec les Indiens de l’Ouest canadien demeurent liti- gieux pour les historiens, les Premières nations, les gouvernements et les tribunaux. Les documents contemporains qui discutent des traités ne proviennent que d’une seule vision du processus des traités. Les historiens ajoutent des renseignements provenant de disciplines telles que les connaissances traditionnelles et l’histoire orale des Autochto- nes. Ils bénéficient désormais d’une nouvelle source écrite contempo- raine, les pictogrammes récemment redécouverts du chef Pasqua, qui illustrent la nature du Traité n° 4 et les débuts de son application. Le compte rendu du chef, tel que replacé dans son contexte, est un ajout important à notre connaissance du processus des traités numérotés dans l’Ouest canadien.

  • The Beaver Club (1785-1827): Behind Closed Doors Bella Silverman
    The Beaver Club (1785-1827): Behind Closed Doors Bella Silverman Montreal’s infamous Beaver Club (1785-1827) was a social group that brought together retired merchants and acted as a platform where young fur traders could enter Montreal’s bourgeois society.1 The rules and social values governing the club reveal the violent, racist, and misogynistic underpinnings of the group; its membership was exclusively white and male, and the club admitted members who participated in morally grotesque and violent activities, such as murder and slavery. Further, the club’s mandate encouraged the systematic “othering” of those believed to be “savage” and unlike themselves.2 Indeed, the Beaver Club’s exploitive, exclusive, and violent character was cultivated in private gatherings held at its Beaver Hall Hill mansion.3 (fig. 1) Subjected to specific rules and regulations, the club allowed members to collude economically, often through their participation in the institution of slavery, and idealize the strength of white men who wintered in the North American interior or “Indian Country.”4 Up until 1821, Montreal was a mercantile city which relied upon the fur trade and international import-exports as its economic engine.5 Following the British Conquest of New France in 1759, the fur trading merchants’ influence was especially strong.6 Increasing affluence and opportunities for leisure led to the establishment of social organizations, the Beaver Club being one among many.7 The Beaver Club was founded in 1785 by the same group of men who founded the North West Company (NWC), a fur trading organization established in 1775. 9 Some of the company’s founding partners were James McGill, the Frobisher brothers, and later, Alexander Henry.10 These men were also some of the Beaver Club’s original members.11 (figs.

Abstract Recently northwest Saskatchewan has seen a rapid push towards large-scale development corresponding with a shifting political economy in the province. For the rights- bearing Métis people of northwest Saskatchewan this shift significantly influences provincial environmental governance, which affects the agency of Métis people to participate in natural resource management and decision-making in the region. To examine the agency and power of Métis communities in provincial natural resource management and decision-making, qualitative methods and a comparative case study of three Métis communities were used to analyze and interpret the social spaces that Métis people occupy in provincial environmental governance.
