"'avid report
highlights
By W, H, A. (ai11). THOMAS
The highlight in Par•1iaMent
last week was the prime min-
ister'•s statement covering the
Commonwealth Conference -
He reported on the with-
drawal of ,South Africa's ap-
plication for continued mem-
bership in the commonwealth
after the nation becomes a re-
public on May 31, 1961.
Canada had backedevery ef-
fort, he reported, to keep South
Africa in the commonwealth
without sacrificing the prin-
ciple of racial equality. 1'lle
prime minister believes that
Canada should, and did stick
to her guns on the question of
racial. discrimination. .Roth op-
position party leaders in com-
menting on his statement back-
ed the attitude be took at the
conference,
Not part of Canada?
The opposition raised the
question of what will happen
to our trade agreements with
South Africa if she leaves the
commonwealth. The govern-
ment reply is that our trade
agreements with South Africa
are on a unilateral basis and
are not likely to be seriously
effected by such a change.
The ,Joint Committee on In-
dian Affairs received an in-
teresting delegation from the
Oka 'Indian Band last week.
Oka is a suburb of Montreal.
About 700 Indians live in the
area. The delegation repre-
sented the so-called "Long
}louse" Indians who pay al-
legiance only to their heredi-
tary chiefs and to the .Crown of
England,
They want no part of Can
ada or of Canadian law and
many of then at one time re-
fused to accept fancily allow-
ance or other welfare assist-
ance, They say they are .a
separate nation in North Amer-
ica and base their claims on
treaties made with former
kings of France and Britain
which treaties were to last as
long as the sun shines and the
waters flow,
Their story begins with a
grant to the Sulpicien Fathers
of New France who were al-
lotted a Seigniory which in-
cludes 12 parishes and about
half a million acres of land.
One of the conditions of the
grant provided that the fathers
were to provide homes •for
these Indians, As time went
on the Sulpicien Fathers sold
off most of the property some
of which has become very val-
uable,
The Indians occupy farms
scattered throughout the area
as well as homes in the town,

parliament
and one large tract of land
has been used .as, a commons
and park. '('heir olaims for
rights over the whole area,
were bro(ight to a shaw-down
some years ago and were ear.'
vied. through the Canadian'
courts to the Privy Connell in
England. The decision went
against the Indians..
Following the privy Council
decision, the Indian Affairs
Branch secured title rights to
the farms and homes occupied
by the Indians from the muni-
• cipality of Oka by paying up
back taxes, had thein .surveyed,
and gave to each- occupant a
letter stating ,that he had the
right to occupy ills, property
v
which was legally descri-be
d.
The Indians are not satisfied,
The down of Oka •is now pro-
posing to turn the commons
area into a golf course and the
Indians object, They clairn that
the courts have no right to
break the solemn contract
which they entered into with
the Crown of England, 'I'hey
reciuest compensation for the
alienation of their property
rights.
Their claim is interesting, If
they could: obtain a favorable
decision in the- .courts they
could all be tnilltonaues .
