I Observing that the "first Americans - the Indians - are the most deprived and isolated minority in our nation/' President Nixon, in a July 8, 1970 message to Congress, advocated major revisions in national policies af- fecting native Americans. Earlier, in his analysis of conditions among Canadian Indians, J. Melling arrived at very similar conclusions. Canada's indigenous groups, he noted, suffering from neglect, prejudice and dis- crimination, were largely "out of sight and out of mind of most white Canadians."1 His findings closely parallel those of President Nixon, who said of the American Indian's status: "On virtually every scale of measure- ment - employment, income, education, health - the condition of the Indian people ranks at the bottom."2
