quoted statistics that
show Canadian men in

of annual income live an
average six years less

20 per cent. Women in the

three years less than
women in the highest.

In addition, both men

that infant mortality

A typical piece of
Trudeau leadership —

Our Indian people should be just as dismayed with
the prime minister's “magnanimous” gesture as
Some of the provincial premiers evidently were.

: The idea of Indian self-government has merit.
South Africa has already demonstrated that the ex-
istence of separate “states within the state” is
workable and does not destroy the integrity of the
larger political entily. Any true conservative will
also agree that in order for people to behave respon-
sibly, they have to be given some effective power

over their own lives.

I've heard it suggested that the Indians don'thave
the capacity to govern themselves, that they would

make a mess of things.

Frankly, after 16 years of PET, the white man is
Inno position to point a finger.

What {s-upsettling though is that Mr. Trudeau
chose to introduce this proposal in a way that
almost guaranteed failure. It was also guaranteed
to make him look good and the provinces bad, mak-
ing one susplcious of his actual motivations.

To put It bluntly, his proposal for a constitutional
amendment guaranteeing Indian self-government
took both the Indians and the provinces by surprise.
Tt was nol only unexpected, but vague. .

What did he mean by self-government? Were the
Indians to run their own health, welfare and educa-
tion using government grants? Were they to have
their own powers of taxation? What about law en-
forcement? How far was this to go?

In the face of these questions, it Is hardly surpris-
ing that most of the provinces balked, not merely at
the guarantee, buteven at supporting an “accord.”

Had the prime minister prepared the ground a lit- -

_Hebdetter, he might have had the support he needed.
