  • The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and the Fort George Reserve, 1908-12
    “You Don’t Suppose the Dominion Government Wants to Cheat the Indians?”:1 The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and the Fort George Reserve, 1908-12 David Vogt and David Alexander Gamble n 1911, after a year of disjointed negotiations, the Grand Trunk Pacific gtp( ) Railway acquired the Lheidli T’enneh First Nation’s I500-hectare (1,366 acres )Fort George Reserve No. 1 at the confluence of the Fraser and Nechako rivers in present-day Prince George. The Lheidli T’enneh, then known to the Canadian government as the Fort George Indian Band, attempted several means to delay the surrender and raise the price of purchase. Ultimately, they agreed to surrender the reserve and move permanently to a second reserve, at Shelley, in exchange for $125,000. This was up from an initial offer of $68,300 and included $25,000 in construction funds and a pledge to preserve the village’s original cemetery (thereafter designated Reserve No. 1A). A specific history of the reserve surrender has not yet been published. Several historians have discussed the implications of the surrender in the context of the gtp’s relations with other “white … institutions,” in- cluding rival developers and the Roman Catholic Church, but they have generally given inadequate attention to the Lheidli T’enneh themselves. Intriguingly, and in contrast, the admittedly racist gtp-sponsored travel writer Frank Talbot alleged that responsibility for delays lay with the “cunning of the red man,” not with white institutions.2 1 Quotation from Royal Commission on Indian Affairs, “Meeting with the Fort George Tribe,” 22-23, Library and Archives Canada (hereafter lac), RG 10, file AH12, vol.
