Each year, we celebrate Treaty Day on October 1. This day serves as the official recognition of the historic Peace and Friendship Treaties between the Mi’kmaq and the Crown. These treaties guarantee the Mi’kmaq right to hunt, fish, gather, and earn a reasonable living, and still stand today.
In 1986, Grand Chief of the Mi’kmaq nation, Donald Marshall Sr., invited all Mi’kmaw to "observe October 1, 1986, and every year thereafter as Treaty Day to commemorate the unique and special relationship that exists between the Mi’kmaq and her Majesty.”
Since 1993, October was recognized as Mi’kmaq History Month. This is a month to celebrate Mi’kmaq culture and history. Across the provinces there are events that showcase this history.
While these treaties sought to achieve a peaceful coexistence, the Mi’kmaq were never conquered, and never surrendered, gave up or ceded their land.
On Treaty Day and throughout Mi’kmaq History Month, take some time to learn about treaties, decolonization, and Mi’kmaq culture and heritage.
This years Mi'kmaw history poster focuses on Msit no 'kmaq (all my relations), Netukulimk (sustainability) and Tpi'tnewey (generously give away).

Here is a great read on Natoaganeg' community member, Jeff Larry. This article talks about the importance of ethical hunting—for community, celebrating traditions through shared meals and the importance of engaging youth and passing down knowledge.
