Ironically, Bell said, Garden River was the last community to sign off on the Robinson Huron Treaty itself in 1850. “After years of perseverance, this marks a new chapter for Garden River First Nation, firmly rooted in respect and co-existence,” stated Chief Bell. “Our ancestors envisioned collaboration based on equality and nation-to-nation relationships and today, we move closer to that vision. We stand by that vision and the special relationship we have with the Crown.”
