The terms and text of Treaty 3 set precedents for the eight Numbered Treaties that followed.

This September 21st was the grand opening of the new Harvey Redsky Memorial School and water plant in Shoal Lake 40. Activities included a fun afternoon consisting of tours, games, food stands, and performances.

After more than two decades without clean drinking water, Shoal Lake 40 First Nation on the Ontario-Manitoba border is celebrating the opening of a water treatment facility and the end of water advisories for the community.
