Roland Monague, Chief of the Beausoleil First Nation
Release Date: June 3, 2011, NationTalk speaks with Chief Roland Monague from Beausoleil First Nation (Christian Island). Topics include the land claim settlement of the Coldwater Treaty in which they were led to believe they had signed an agreement indicating they were there to stay.
It was acknowledged years later that they were defrauded of the land and had given up their rights to the land from Coldwater. The negotiations took 30 years and is said to be the largest land claim settlement to be made in Canada’s history.
