Treaty 11

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Treaty 11 was an agreement established from 1921 to 1922 between the Canadian government and various First Nations in what is today the Northwest Territories.

Henry Anthony Conroy was appointed treaty commissioner and conducted the negotiations and signings in 1921. However, he was unable to gain signatures from some bands in the Liard district during that summer. Further complicating matters was Conroy's death in April 1922. Thomas William Harris, Conroy's replacement, conducted the remaining treaty signings at Liard in July 1922.
