Original Toronto Star caption: Fine feathers for our Indian MP. Indian Hall of Fame guide Margaret Bearskin helps Leonard Marchand, MP for Kamloops-Caribou, don a headdress. Marchand, the first Indian ever elected to the House of Commons, visited the CNE today with his wife and two young children. I don't plan to set myself up as a spokeman or savior for the Indians, he said. But I'll do all I can to make it possible for the Indian people to progress. the MP added.
