Vowel says when we start to know the treaties, we start to act differently. Riddle adds that the treaties provide us with a structure to think about our institutions. How can we implement them into our professional and personal lives? What does this mean for our everyday lives? She also believes that implementing treaty frameworks calls for living with the land in a better way. Learning to live with each other in a good way, in kinship — respecting relationships with each other and with non-human relations — means respecting Indigenous people and their rights to self-determination and territorial title, says Vowel.
Rather, they were widely believed to be living documents, something to be revisited over time as our world changes. Our treaty ancestors negotiated for the tools and frameworks for us to be able to live in an ethical and equitable way with each other and our non-human relations.

In exchange for their land, Indigenous peoples — in this case, the Mississaugas — received token gifts such as blankets, guns, ammunition and red cloths for clothing. But the exchange was also made with an expectation of goodwill: Indigenous peoples trusted that the Crown would keep them safe in return for sharing their lands.
When deciding upon the span of the land claim, the Mississaugas recalled the terms were based on how far the sound of a gunshot carried. The survey resulted in the Crown acquiring land from the St. Lawrence River to the Bay of Quinte. Treaties Recognition week is a springboard for contemplation, understanding, and action.
