I wish to place great emphasis
upon the fact that we must dis-

of
the Sects’ continued refusal to
pay rent or: taxes on lands pre-
sently by them, because

the
Sons of Freedom Sect and’ the
Doukhobor Community at large.
It has been a great injustice to
the Doukhobors of this Province
that discussions of this general
ion rarely make this distinc-

tion and I want it clearly under-
stood that in dealing with this

they do not- recognize any form
of private ownership of land.’
The Commissioner's observa-
tion in this connecjion, reads?
“In .this connection it may be
noted that Sons of Freedom have
always refused to pay rent for
their Provincial © Government
Jand hol and have been al-

problem, . this has
this distinction in mind.

In this connection it must be
remembered that there are at the
present time about 18,000 Douk-
hobors in Canada; ‘10,000 making
up the Independent Doukhobors
have made, in the last 50 years,
a good ajustment to. Canadian
life; 5,000 the Orthadox Group,
have made a partial ‘adjustment,
and the balance, about 2,000 to

2,500, namely, the Sons of Free-
dom ‘Sect,“have made very littlé
adjustment at all.

The’ files of the Government
contain many reports and cbserv-

report, known only to a few
people, is that of His Honor Harry
J. Sullivan, Judge of ‘the County

lowed to ‘get away with it’ for
so many. years that they have
become convinced of: the right-
eousness of their. stand.”

The brief presented at that

disputed the right of any govern-

for .non-compliance with Cana-

deal further with the Commis-

say that events which occurred
at the time of the holding of ‘the
