Their development should be In the way most in keeping with their best traditions and not Inconsistent with Canadian ideals. There must be nothing dominant or aggressive In the attitude of the white man toward the Indian. So far the wise and effective ways of sharing progress with the Indians had not been effectively developed. They should be fitted to either merge Into the social and economic life of the prevailing civilization as developed by the whites or to live In the presence of that civilization at least with a minimum standard of health and decency.
