- Letter to the Editor The Canadian Indian | The Editor: Indians on reserves can, for practical. pur- poses of government, claim only Canadian citizenship and not pro- vincial citizenship. And the Metes, such as live more or less according to the Indian culture, have, in effect, no citi- zenship although before the law they are full citi- zens. This means simply that the elaborate pro- vincial services for health, welfare, high- ways, industrial de- velopment, technical training and what-have- you are in practice not fully available to Indian- cultre people. One of the most valuable practical actions would be an arrangement between federal and provincial governments to extend the full range of pro- vincial services to in- clude the reserves. The Indians of Cana- da, the fifty tribes, have established an inde- pendent Indian voice in the National Indian Brotherhood and its do- zen or so member or- ganizations. The voice is harsh. The president has said from a prepared text: "The servants be- came the dictators, the tyrants, the empire builders: the people to be served became the oppressed, the victims of colonial white sup- remist mentality. Unless they are willing to ac- cept our culture and our identity, they, the bureaucrats, the face- less, anonymous deci- sion-makers for the Fed- eral Government, will continue to multiply the social problems they have created, instead of solving them. The fail- ure of the Indian Affairs Branch stems from their preoccupation with do- ing for people instead of doing with them -- a preoccupation that des- troys the dignity and arouses the hostility of the people who are sup- posed to be helped."' The indictment of civil servants is natural enough: they are the only official contact In- dians have with the whole framework of Canadian government. But the civil servants, like the Indians, are In eight weeks time, give or take a day or so, the Terrace Bay Fall Fair will be very much in evidence in the com- munity. During the summer, we all have a tendency to think, "Oh, there is still lots of time left." But, time has a way of creeping up on us. In sheer panic, we rush and get moving!
