October 1 is Treaty Day in Nova Scotia. In 1986, Mi’kmaq Grand Chief Donald Marshall Sr. called on Mi’kmaw people to observe the date each year in recognition of the treaty relationship between the Mi’kmaq and the Crown.

"The Mi'kmaq of Nova Scotia and the Assembly of Nova Scotia Mi'kmaw Chiefs continue to remain opposed to hydraulic fracturing and will not see it happen in our unceded and traditional territory,"

“The contents of that letter are not a fair description of the process or the reality on our reserves", Crystal Dorey, [spokesperson for the Assembly of Nova Scotia Mi'kmaw Chiefs] said. "There are Aboriginal and Treaty rights involved here.”

RCMP, once again, break Canadian law by violating Mi’kmaq Treaty Rights to sell cannabis on reserves at a time when public expects reconciliation amid rising racism.
