Was the Panama Canal built as part of a treaty between the US and Columbia?

No, the Panama Canal was not built as part of a treaty between the US and Colombia. Initially, the US sought to negotiate a treaty with Colombia to build the canal, but when negotiations failed, the US supported a rebellion in Panama in 1903. After Panama gained independence, the US and the new government signed the Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty, which granted the US control over the canal zone to construct the canal.
