Province Should Take Over Indian Affairs
Mr. Connelley argues provincial governments should assume administration of Indian affairs and services for about 25 000 Indians in the province. He says Indians seek equal government service and plan to increasingly manage their own affairs. The remark came during the 1th annual Indian and Metis Conference in Winnipeg where delegates discussed regional control and future welfare planning.
