Bereik en inhoud
This file contains a photocopy of a chapter from a book that talks about the Bagot Commission, that in 1844 reported on the Department and Indian conditions. It includes statements made by the Lieutenant-Governor Bond Head in 1836 who "considered it a near hopeless task to attempt to "advance" and assimilate Indian people". It further explains the failure of Captain Thomas G. Anderson (1830) who undertook an experiment in "civilizing" the Indians at Coldwater on the Narrows reserve on the northwest of Lake Simcoe and the failure of Bond Head's Manitoulin Project of 1836.
