The Natural Resource Transfer Agreement (NRTA act) is applicable to Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba and are all ruled under this act. The Act says any Indian and is not specific, that is why any Indian with a Treaty card can hunt in these three provinces. The feds or the crown back in those days must have gotten lazy and wanted to fast track the transfer. Back then they were more interested in Resource rich Ontario....
In Ontario you can only exercise your rights within your Treaty area unless you get permission from a First Nation in another Treaty area...
