This year, the amendment cat. icizes the Government for not having put its fiscal house in order and not having set up an„ independent study of its inter. ° nal organization and methods. The amendment goes On to say that the Government has failed to provide adequate hous- ing for the people of Qatari() ' and has failed to protect ten- ants' rights, t'armers have not shared in the benefits available The Government has failed to plan it the proper economic development of the province..

He stated that while Ottawa's pipition-, Seemed. too inflexible, 4tario's position was just as ' inflexible in that the?Premier has said that the only way the, province can alleviate the "fis- cal nightmare" is to get more money from Ottawa.

' In almost every tribe, a desire for regular sup- plies of meat prompted the men to strive for excellence as hunt- ers, trappers or fishermen. But, depending on local circum- stances, different tribes had dif- ferent ways of keeping them- selves fed: some tribes, pre- dominantly meat -eaters, were obliged to be migrants, follow- ing their food supply as it moved around on the hoof. The Chipewyan Indians, for instance, ' kept constantly: on the move, following the caribou around a region of the northland east .a the Mackenzie River. Similarly,' the Assiniboines roamed the southern Canadian prairies on a continuous hunt' for the migra- tory buffalo. The Micmacs,in the Maritimes spent their winters in the woods hunting moose, cari- bou and perOupine. In the warm, t 44444444 44 44444 o o oo o er months. they lived at the sea- shore. gathering shellfish, catch- ing fish and hunting seals. The Hurons and Iroquois re- lied mainly on planted crops. They managed to lead compara- tively settled (though not neces- sarily peaceful) lives., While they roamed to some extent as hunters in search of secondary. food sources, they maintained, the same village sites year after year. When they did move it was usually because the soil around their village was ex- hausted or because some enemy had burned their crops. As hunters. trappers and fish- ermen, the Indians lacked some of the equipment and mobility • of the white man—metal tools. • firearms, and the wheel. But when alloWance -was made for these disadvantages, • the most skillful Indians rated high in- deed in all three pursuits. From childhood, the Indian boy be- came a shrewd • student of nature, at least in every way that might help him in the hunt. By instruction and observation he soon grew to know the ha- bits. instinctstand life cycles Of every species of game. Even without steel or gunpowder. the Indians contrived several pieces of hunting, trapping ,and fishing equipment more ingenious than anything invented in Europe. Since the spear was generally ineffective against big game at • large, herd animals such as buf- falo and deer were usually • driOen into an 'enclosure and speared at close range. •Some. ithiies advancing buffalo were killed by archers lying hidden, in a shallow pit. Occasionally the hunters would stampede the buffalo over a cliff and finish off the injured survivors below with spears or clubs. In other regions caribou, moose or deer were driven into streams or in- lets, where they were easily, speared from canoes. • Huron County FOA annual meeting in Londesboro hall The Londesboro WomenIn- stitute catered for the dinner when the Huron County Federa- tion of Agriculture held its an- nual meeting on Wednesday of last week.
