Treaty 11 territory encompasses more than a dozen Gwich’in, Sahtu Dene, Dehcho Dene and Tłı̨chǫ communities in the Northwest Territories — spanning an area twice the size of Germany. This CBC article is an accessible read for parents, teachers, and high school students, with pictures and suggested further readings. The article critically discusses Treaty 11 all the way from its historical conception to its modern day implications: "As communities across the N.W.T. prepare to acknowledge 100 years since its signing, Treaty 11 and its story stands as a testament to the Canadian government’s covetousness, paternalism and disregard for northern Indigenous people. But equally, Treaty 11 is an important agreement — one intended to establish for all time the friendship and interdependence of Indigenous and settler communities in the North."

"A historically accurate study that takes no sides, this book is the first complete document of Treaties 8 and 11 between the Canadian government and the Native people at the turn of the nineteenth century. On the basis of those treaties, contested in the Mackenzie Pipeline debate, white fur-traders, trappers, and corporations gave themselves privileges of ownership with no regard to the Native claim and to the promise made to the Natives that they could live and hunt there "as long as the sun rises, as long as the river flows, as long as this land shall last." Historian Rene Fumoleau has delved into church and government sources to afford a clear picture of the negotiations for the treaties beginning in 1870 and their aftermath up to 1939. With an updated introduction by Joan Barnaby, the documents discussed in the book speak for themselves, implying a host of questions with both historical relevance and enduring significance" (Description taken from publisher).

An incredible resource for teachers in Treaty 6, this website contains dozens of grade-specific lesson plans, activities, and other resources for K-12. As the website explains, "Four Treaty Education K-12 goals have been identified as the basis for building understanding and nurturing appreciation. These goals are based upon the Treaty Essential Learnings (2006) and are intended to be addressed through various subject areas. These goals are:

• Treaty Relationships;

• Spirit and Intent of Treaties;

• Historical Context of Treaties, and

• Treaty Promises and Provisions.

While they are presented separately, the goals for Treaty Education can best be understood when considered as parts of a whole, integrated into other curriculum in meaningful ways. The outcomes and indicators at each grade level are designed to engage learners on a journey of inquiry and discovery. When meaningfully and thoughtfully incorporated into subject areas, Treaty Education moves beyond an idea to become actualized as a belief that benefits all learners." Content profoundly covers topic areas of Treaty Six Basics, The Story of Treaty Six, Treaty Perspectives, Contemporary Issues of Treaty, Curriculum and Instructional support, Living Histories project documentation, an Interactive game on Treaty 6 Territory, and additional resources and links.

More than thirty years ago, section 35 of the Constitution Act recognized and affirmed “the existing aboriginal and treaty rights of the aboriginal peoples of Canada.” Hailed at the time as a watershed moment in the legal and political relationship between Indigenous peoples and settler societies in Canada, the constitutional entrenchment of Indigenous and treaty rights has proven to be only the beginning of the long and complicated process of giving meaning to that constitutional recognition.In From Recognition to Reconciliation, twenty leading scholars reflect on the continuing transformation of the constitutional relationship between Indigenous peoples and the Canadian state. The book features essays on themes such as the role of sovereignty in constitutional jurisprudence, the diversity of methodologies at play in these legal and political questions, and connections between the Canadian constitutional experience and developments elsewhere in the world.
