Scope and content
A media kit, produced by Grand Council Treaty Number 9. Titled "Reed's Greed," the materials here relate to opposition to Reed Paper (Canada) Ltd., the company responsible for mercury pollution in the English & Wabigoon River system, affecting the people of Grassy Narrows First Nation/Asubpeeschoseewagong Netum Anishinabek.
Most material dates from 1976. At this time, Reed was planning an expansion of its forest products operations and requesting increased timber rights from the Ontario government. This is also a time after the mercury pollution had been identified by researchers and made known to governments, but long before any settlements were reached.
Documents include media releases, clippings, information sheets, and posters for protest events in Winnipeg.
Most materials are in English; some in an Indigenous language written in syllabics.
