Privy Council Report on the Memorandum, 30th April, 1875

Document Summary:
The Privy Council makes recommendations regarding the Treaties One and Two memo:

The promises were:

• That the oral promises outlined in the memo be added to Treaty One and Two.
  
  
• That while the Indian commissioner cannot claim anything that wasn't signed on paper during negotiations as being in a treaty, the government of Canada is interested in ensuring that the Aboriginal peoples are content.
  
  
• Therefore, extra cash and gifts will be given to these people each year to address these concerns, but only if they abandon other 'outside promises' made during Treaty One and Two that are not already in the memo.
