# 460 - Some Canadian History - Final

in #steemsilvergold5 years ago (edited)

The information below comes from the site of the Canadian Historical Association:
https://cha-shc.ca/english/what-we-do/what-we-do.html

"Founded in 1922, the Canadian Historical Association / La Société Historique du Canada is a bilingual not-for-profit and charitable association devoted to fostering the scholarly study and communication of History in Canada.

The CHA pursues a number of academic and professional activities for the benefit of its members; it sponsors a vast array of publications and represents the interests of historians and the heritage community by actively lobbying archives, museums, governments and granting agencies on issues relating to copyright, access to information, academic freedom and public access to historical documents."

A few years ago it issued a series of silver medallions related to the Canadian History.

They weight around 11.6g (0.37oz), have a 92.5% silver purity and Proof finish.

I could not find how many different medallions were issued, but I have 20 of them and they will be shown chronologically.

The twentieth is the 1877 - Blackfoot Treaty.

Known as Treaty 7, it is one of the Numbered Treaties made between the Government of Canada and the Plains First Nations. It was signed on September,22 1877 by five First Nations: the Siksika (Blackfoot), Kainai (Blood), Piikani (Peigan), Stoney-Nakoda, and Tsuut’ina (Sarcee).

The Treaty established a delimited area of land for the tribes and promised annual payments/provisions from the Queen to the tribes, among other things. In exchange, the tribes ceded their rights to their traditional territory, which they had earlier been recognized as the owners.
