Pre-confederation treaties between Indigenous peoples and settlers in Canada started as early as 1701 with Peace and Friendship Treaties. Later treaties included the Robinson treaties from 1750 which helped establish relations. The Selkirk treaty was also an important early agreement between Indigenous groups and settlers in Canada before confederation.
