Description: This group contains the Treaty Boundary boundary label, outline and fill area with an outline, all of which are comprised of all the polygons that represent the historical treaty lands of Canada negotiated by First Nations over the years through treaty-making between 1867 - 1999. The approximate boundaries illustrate the traditional territories described in First Nations Statements of Intent to negotiate treaties which have been submitted to, and accepted.
The Treaty Boundary dataset provides users with GIS ready, but highly generalized, polygonal representation of all Treaty areas in the province of Alberta. The boundaries are suitable for indexing purposes, but are not suitable for detailed analysis purposes.
This group of layers is not visible beyond the scale of 1:27,733,946.
