- Scope & content
- Letter: referring to his letter of Oct. 5 through Indian Affairs requesting that Golden Lake Indians be permitted to take game without license, and responding that "[N]o doubt you are familiar with the value of the tourist trade to the County of Renfrew, which is increasing annually, and the difficulty the Department has in conserving one of the principal tourist attractions, viz., the game and fish of your section." Stating that this should be sufficient reason that the Indians should have to hunt legally under license and in season, as anyone else has to. Also stating that Ontario Gov't authorized sum of half a million dollars to be paid to Indian Affairs "in lieu of any special privileges the Indians might have claimed under ancient treaties." Indicating, therefore, that it would not be profitable or advisable to permit Indians to take game in any way other than under strict regulations.
