In the photograph, an Ojibwe man sits inside of a canoe, surrounded by many people.

Art explained that if a person did not show up in person to collect their treaty money, they would not receive it. Art also informed us that Rainy River Ojibwe still go to collect their five dollars from the government on Treaty Day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Treaty Money When Du Vernet
