- November 2020: The Rice Lake Mississaugas disputed the Crown's claim that their lands had been included in the Crawford Purchases. The group faced starvation and the destruction of their traditional hunting grounds due to the influx of settlers in the early 19th century. Under the Rice Lake Purchase, members of the group were to receive ten dollars per person as an annual payment.[1]
