Silver is a feature of the convention ceremony. They offered a permanent visual reminder to all participants to remind their treaty promises

This medal contains the bust of Queen Victoria and the word "VICTORIA REGINA". On the back is a leaf of oak connected by a knot and a wreath of acorn.

Medals are not made specially for the treaty. I bought it from J S. & A. B. Wyon, London, UK, selected from prefab stocks

Since the medals used in Conventions 1 and 2 were considered too small to be properly designed, in 1872 the federal government asked Montreal silverworker Robert Hendry to award alternative medals .

The new medal design was adopted from the 1867 federal medal, Hendry added an 11 mm outer ring.

This medal is similar to the statue of Queen Victoria. The stamp of the outer ring is written as "1872 Canadian cutting medal".

Four fables representing logging, mining, fishing and agriculture are printed with Britannia sitting on the back.

Founded in 1867 Canada's INSTAURATA 1867 JUVENAS ET PATRIUS VIGOR inscriptions can be translated into Canada through youth and patriotic forces.

The size of this Canadian medal is impressive - 95 mm in diameter and 10 mm in thickness - silver plating can not be easily peeled off, so we need to find a substitute.

In 1873, several third silver medals with more appropriate western themes were ordered by JS. & A. B. Wyon, London, UK each price for $ 24

They are based on Queen Victoria and the bust of Victoria Regina, behind the Indian incarnation at sunset, Indian war costume leader and British officer shake hands

These spaces are intentionally left blank and are cut at the appropriate time with the Treaty Number and Date.

Conventions 1, 2 and 3 were concluded between 1871 and 1873 in Cree and Ojibweit, Manitoba, and northwest Ontario. Treaty 1 was signed in August 1871 at the position of Manitoba House with Hall of the HBC Post and Treaty 3 was negotiated in 1873 in the Northwest corner near Woods Lake. According to the provisions of the first Convention, the indigenous people are required to maintain peace between the indigenous peoples and to maintain peace with the settlers and to avoid interference with public property and public property. We will maintain peace and order between ourselves and others. Indian tribes will help to make the Indians justice in violation of treaties and laws. The official proposal to hold the land for indigenous peoples use is reflected in all numbered treaties. Indigenous peoples can freely choose whether to continue hunting in protected areas or engage in agriculture.

On November 19, 2003, the Canadian government and the first country of Manitoba signed a memorandum to establish an independent fair treaty relationship committee. The Committee provides a forum between Manitoba and the Indigenous Treaty of Canada to discuss historical treaties and how to understand the conventions in the modern treaty. On September 19, 2003, the Supreme Court of Canada unanimously decided to manufacture major imports to Canada Metis. In the Powley ruling, the court ruled that a particular Metis community in Ontario has the right to harvest camels for self-sufficiency, thus confirming the existence of the indigenous peoples' rights of Metis.
