Os Tratados numerados (ou Tratados da Pós-Confederação)[1] são uma série de tratados assinados entre os onze povos aborígenes do Canadá com os monarcas reinantes do Canadá (Victoria, Edward VII e George V) entre 1871-1921.[1] Foi o Governo do Canadá que criou a política e ratificou os acordos. Esses tratados são acordos com o Governo do Canadá,[2] administrado pela lei canadense aborígene e supervisionados pelo Ministério de Assuntos Indígenas e Desenvolvimento do Norte.[3]

The Numbered Treaties - also called the Land Cession or Post-Confederation Treaties - were signed between 1871 and 1921, and granted the federal government large tracts of land throughout the Prairies, Canadian North and Northwestern Ontario for white settlement and industrial use. In exchange for the land, Canada promised to give the Aboriginal peoples various items: cash, blankets, tools, farming supplies, and so on. The impact of these treaties can be still felt in modern times.

Before Confederation, the Dominion of Canada signed treaties with First Nations. Since Confederation, the Government of Canada continues to negotiate modern treaties. Treaty relationships provide a resource for resolving long-standing claims and disputes and for improved cooperation between the Government of Canada and First Nations. Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) is the federal department responsible for negotiating and implementing treaties (including comprehensive and specific land claims). INAC also maintains a centre of expertise for understanding Canada's historic treaties with First Peoples.
