Indians of Canada A Nineteenth Century View of Tribes and Policy
Special Correspondence from Winnipeg explains Canada’s Indian policy as largely honest but shaped by circumstances. It outlines tribal distributions from Athabasca to Hudson Bay, notes mound sites along Rainy River, discusses totemic kinship and marriage rules, and recalls the Selkirk and Metis episodes culminating in Riel’s defeat. It claims long peace since Hudson Bay Company rule and precise tribal counting today.
