the implications for the indigenous people after the signing of the treaty are seen through their suffering and hardship. the buffalo disappeared more rapidly than expected and the promised support from the canadian government to transition into a agriculture lifestyle did not happen as quickly and as many expected. the winters following the signing of treaty seven were very harsh on the indigenous people and their nomadic lifestyle. the nations were still waiting on the government to state what land they will be able to claim. they suffered through disease outbreaks and starvation. once the nations received the land they were given, it largely was unsuitable. the reserves led to poverty, food shortages and residential schools. missionaries arrived to provide day schools and residential schools on the reserves. issues arose with the reserves that included the lack of space for the number of people, fears the canadian pacific railway would be constructed on their new land and that the land was insufficient and unsuitable. these were the main concerns of the treaty seven tribes. the treaty seven tribes had been given their reserves and plenty of aid from the missionaries but the promised help from the government that was stated in the treaty would take years to fully receive.
