Yes. But if we're going by possibility it's also possible the chiefs sold out their own people and misrepresented their desires to the Canadian government. After all in many treaties the financial compensation of the chief was drastically more than the common member. For example in treaty 11 chiefs got 25000 while lay people got 5 dollars. That is a pretty clear disincentive.
