Moving forward together.
As Robinson Huron Treaty Anishinaabek, we stand united to protect our collective Treaty rights and hold the Crown accountable to its promise to increase the annuity over time, for the benefit of all RHT Anishinaabek.
Our unity helped secure the historic settlement for past compensation.
Now, we go forward together to fulfill the ongoing right to annuity augmentation.

Our ancestors who signed the Robinson Huron Treaty of 1850 would be proud of what the RHT Anishinaabek have achieved. After a century of the Treaty's intent being ignored, we stood up for our rights, compelling the Crown to honour promises.
This is our journey – past, present , and going forward.
Did you know?
It was in January 2024 that the Robinson Huron Chiefs and Trustees, the Governments of Canada, and the province of Ontario signed the Settlement Agreement.
The Robinson Huron Treaty of 1850 annuity clause was intended, by our Anishinaabek ancestors, to ensure the collective well-being of all RHT Anishinaabek. This 'sharing arrangement of profits' from the Crown for settlement and resource access in our Territory, was to provide a lasting benefit for our people then and the Anishinaabek of the future. However, in 1855, the Crown began its breach of the annuity payments promise – a reality that created challenges and hardships for our people for over a century.
