- Scope & content
- Letter: replying to an inquiry. "... in reply to point out that the question is not as to who governs the Indians so much as to who has the right to legislate with regard to the Game, and it has been held that each province has constitutionally this right, even if it should clash with what are or may be thought by the Indians, to be their Treaty rights. Whatever your opinion or that of the Department may be, the fact remains that Indians are liable to be arrested and fmed or imprisoned for violation of the Provincial Game Ordinance, and the Department is powerless to interfere in the matter."
