Saskatchewan judge rules Indians entitled to free hospital care under 1876 treaty
In Battleford Saskatchewan, Judge J M Policha ruled that the 1876 treaty obliges the federal government to cover all medical costs for Indians in the province, on and off reserves. The decision targeted Walter Johnson, a non reserve Indian, who was charged with failing to pay premiums under provincial hospital and medical care plans. The ruling raises questions about how far the treaty extends, with possible appeals anticipated.
