The Stswecem'c Xgat'tem First Nation has not signed any treaty with any settler-colonial political entity, nor has it ceded any land and let go its territorial claims. As part of the Northern Secwepemc te Qelmucw (Tribal Council), Stswecem'c Xgat'tem First Nation has been in negotiation with the government of Canada and the government of British Columbia regarding a final treaty settling this matter.

Once a final agreement is signed between the Tribal Council, Canada, and British Columbia, it is expected that the Indian Reserves will be abolished, the territories under jurisdiction of Stswecem'c Xgat'tem First Nation will expand significantly, and former reserves will be absorbed into settlement land under sovereignty of Stswecem'c Xgat'tem First Nation.[1]

These reserves are expected to be abolished and absorbed into settlement lands, after the signing of a final agreement.
