A Short History of Chief Island 1856-2007 As Prepared by Leclair
A SHORT HISTORY OF CHIEF ISLAND, 1856-2007 Abstract A brief examination of Chippewas of Rama First Nation’s assertion to title Prepared for Chippewas of Rama First Nation by Leclair Historical Research, June 2021 PRIVILEDGED AND CONFIDENTIAL Introduction In late May 2021 Cathy Edney, Communications Manager, Rama First Nation contacted Leclair Historical Research asking for a primer on the status of Chief Island, Rama Township. Rama First Nation asserts that this island is part of the traditional territory of the Chippewas of Lake Huron and Simcoe, and more specifically, that of Rama First Nation. A search of the historical abstract books for Ramara Township housed at Simcoe County’s Land Registry Office # 51 was also undertaken as a precaution against the question of a title conflict. 1 No cloud on the title to the island was found. In sum, Chief Island has never been covered by treaty and remains Indigenous territory. It has a special significance for Rama First Nation as it has been used as a burial ground for its people for centuries. It is also the final resting place of those ancient ancestors whose care has been entrusted to Rama First Nation. Through a Joint Band Council Resolution passed among the Chippewas of Rama, Beausoleil Island and Georgina Island in 1964, and an accompanying federal Ministerial Order, Chief Island has been expressly named as part of the reserve lands of the Chippewas of Rama First Nation. 1 The historical land abstract books are available online through the government of Ontario’s ONLAND, land registry access. https://www.onland.ca/ui/25/books/search.
