~- »Minister Without Portfolio. Assigned to Study

Frank. Calder might
just have the toughest cab-
inet job of all.

The first indication of
this came when some Ind-
ian leaders suggested that
Premier Dave Barrett had
made Galder his “token In-
dian” in giving him minis-
try-without-portfolio and as-
signing him to study Ind-
ian affairs in British Colum-

So I talked to Lou De-
merais, the 29-year-old as-
sistant to the executive dir-
ector of the Union of Brit-
ish Columbia’ Indian Chiefs,
in an attempt to learn the

ickground to the “token
Indian” statement.

Demerais is a non-sta-
‘tus Indian who grew up in
Prince Albert, Sask. He is
a journalist by profession,
having worked at the Prince
Albert Herald, where he
get his start, "the Re

ader-Post, and two stints
at the Kamloops Sentinel.

Like many Indian’ young
people with ¥ sdministrative
or communications training,
he decided to move from a
career in a white-oriented
world to one of the many
new vocations opening up in
organizations run by and
for Indian people. One of

Think Spring!

his main responsibilities is is
to edi a”, (Chinook
for ‘“Us") a new monthl
aper which is to be the of-
icial voice of the union:

Demerais told me tl
one of Calder'’s main diffi-
culties is the fear of many-
Indian people that he will
work mainly
the ‘Nisheas, a tribal group
whose people live in the
Nass River basin in Cald-
er’s Atlin riding.

The fear is based
Jy on the fact that only
recent years have Indian
chiefs found a way of wor-
king together on a prov-

ince-wide basis (i.e. — the
UBCIC) and that Calder, as
head of the Nishga Tribal
Council, has remained some-
what
Demerais indicated.

The Nishgas and the
UBCIC have taken two dif-
ferent types of action to at-
tempt to get land treat aty
tights for B.C. Indians, wil
Calder leading his council
into the Supreme Court, and
the union trying more for
government recognition of
an official Indian voice. _.

The accomplishments
of forming a B.C.-wide un-
ion in the face of long es-
tablished tribal, band and
regional rivalries and loyal-
ties among Indian people
has not been a bit easy, De-
merais indicated. For that
reason, he noted, the un-
ion wants to ensure that
Calder will not ignore them
in making his study.

Part of the ditticulty is
that Calder is just one In-

to the end of ©

aloof of the union, ©

possible alienation from
other groups besides the
Nishgas is only a fraction
of that atten Hy
To the white person,
who often concludes without
thinking, that “all those In-
dians are alike”, the ap-
Bointment of Calder to stu-
dy Indian problems might
seem like a great move.
But Demerais points
out the main difficulty by-
switching the spotlight to
Indian

loops MP for the past four
years, He said some whites
have suggested Marchand
should have been appointed
Indian Affairs minister in
the federal cabinet, but his
own view is that he would
have been ruined as a man
and as a politician if that
had Bappened.
“The Indian people
would expect too much of
him. It would be like gen-
ocide,” he noted. And swit-
ching back to Calder, he

said “It is tough to have .

him carry the ‘burden’ of
the agian; It amazes me
that he can assume it. He
moust ave a lot of faith in
himself.”

Of course, the ‘appoint-

ment to study rather thant :

that burden somewhat light.

But the union sees a
partial solution to the diffi-
