the ability for first nations to be separate is not segregation, it is literally the point of the treaty. i think you need to research what the treaties are, because theyre not land title deeds that the government bought

The concept of a Treaty doesn’t necessitate a reservation system, so no, the Treaties themselves aren’t representative of segregation, but the details within are.
The definition of segregation is the act of setting people apart, so there is no doubt that it is segregation. The only thing to debate is whether it is good or bad. Throughout history there are probably examples of both. Countries for example are a form of segregation.
