Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Indians Lounge on the main street of Kenora. Sometimes they lie about in drunken stupor. The whites say that's a problem because they frighten away tourists. The Indians complain the government is doing the wrong things in trying to help them overcome their problems. The seizure of Kenora's park was an attempt to rekindle dignity.
