During some point in the late 19th century, the government of the United States refused to honor the March 28, 1836 treaty. Leaders from the Sault Tribe refused to cede their Reservation. The government of the United States then went so far as to not recognize the Sault Tribe of Chippewas of Michigan which means the March 28, 1836 treaty is legitimate. | During some point in the late 19th century, the government of the United States refused to honor the March 28, 1836 treaty.

In 1934, the Indian Reorganization Act was brought forth. However, the Sault Tribe of Chippewas either refused to participate or they were not allowed the opportunity to vote if they wanted to accept or reject the Indian Reorganization Act. At that time (1934), the Soo Tribe was thought to be a part of Bay Mills. | |||
In 1972, the government of the United States resumed federal recognition of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Michigan. However, they did not recognize the vast Reservation created for the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians of Michigan. That must be accomplished if the March 28, 1836 treaty is to be honored. Below is a link to the news article about the entire Upper Peninsula of Michigan being a Chippewa Reservation. | In 1972, the government of the United States resumed federal recognition of the Sault Ste.
