Ojibway Indians of Alberta

It was after anishinabe ogimak became aware of the seven fires prophecy around 1,000 years ago, when the Ojibway commenced to follow the prophecy and invade towards the west. Their journey took them to california, oregon, washington, british columbia, alaska, and then Siberia. They also invaded the central and northern portions of alberta, saskatchewan, manitoba, the northwest territories, and the yukon at least 1,000 years ago. Then after the whites invaded in the 16th century, another anishinabe westward invasion commenced from out of northwestern Ontario and northern Minnesota, at around the mid 1730s. By the 1790s, the Anishinabe Indians of Alberta had settled in central alberta, between the athabascans to the north, and the Blackfoot (Niitsitapi) to their south. After the whites encroached onto the land of the Chippewa's of the Saskatchewan and Albertan region, a war erupted in 1876-1877, which is known as the 1876-1877 Black Hills War, the 1877 Nez Perce War, and the 1885 Northwest Rebellion. I suspect that the 1885 Northwest Rebellion really occurred in the year 1877, and was only a part of the two other wars mentiond. After the whites had defeated the Chippewa's of the Saskatchewan and Albertan region in 1877, they forced them by treaty, to cede their lands in sounthern Saskatchewan and the central Albertan region. The Canadians left the Chippewa's with almost nothing in southern Saskatchewan, south and west of Regina, and south of Saskatoon. In the central Albertan region, the Canadians left the Chippewa's with nothing. Only in 1949 did the Anishinabe Indians of Alberta finally agree to treaty six and treaty seven conditions and terms. Today, there is the Anishinabe O'Chiese Kingdom of Alberta, which is just to the northwest of Rocky Mountain House, next to the Rocky Mountains. There are the non status Foothills Ojibway Society of the Albertan region as well. Then we have the Cree and Chipewyan Indians, who are the Chippewa's of course, who live in the far northern Albertan region. Though the whites and even the Cree and Chipewyans, will not accept my belief that the Cree and Chipewyans are in fact the Albertan Anishinabe, we know better. The Cree and Chipewyans (the Anishinabe of Alberta) have been forced by the whites to lose their tribal identity of course. Below is a list of the Anishinabe Indians of Alberta, and the Alberta Anishinabek who have been forced to lose their tribal identity.
