“ Carter is scheduled to choose by September 1 between
‘y fwo proposals for tr. Alaskan natural gas to the
‘lower 48 states. The trans-Canada route has been en-
dorsed by Ottawa, the U.S. Federal Power Commission
: and several other U.S. government agencies.

“pipeline. When gas arrived at the coast it would be

”’ The Yukon, which covers 207,076 square miles, has a
population of only 24,000, and there is disagreement
‘about how many Indians live there. CYI said: 6,000
‘persons are eligible for a land claims settlement, but
: officials said the figure is closer to 4,500. The population
figure would help determine the size of any settlement.

ck,”’

Warren Allmand, federal Indian affairs and northern
development minister, said Johnson's remarks ‘‘are too
much rhetoric.” He said Ottawa is committed to a just .
settlement of land claims and the pipeline need not in-

‘ere.

The trans-Canada route has strong support among the
business community and the government of Yukon. One
federal official said Indian resistance to it has increased
racial tension in the territory.

Leaders of the CYI, which represents Yukon Indians in
land claims talks, said they prefer no pipeline be built.
But Johnson sald if it must be, then the Indians need
seven to 10 years to complete a land claims settlement.

A federal impact study group considered the Indian
position and decided construction might begin in’ 1981.

but still faster than the trans-Alaska route might be
undertaken.

CYI leaders met with Prime Minsiter Trudeau earlier
this month and reiterated their opposition to the line.
“Trudeau openly admitted that benefits to the North
would be negligible and it’s obvious, but he won't admit

it, that it will hurt the Indian population," Johnson said.

INUIT THREATEN
TO LEAVE QUEBEC —

FORT CHIMO, QUE. CP- The eloquent and well-
informed young activists leading the battle between
native people and the Quebec governemnt over
legislation here say the Inuit may eventually have to
secede from Quebec.

fy

from Quebec if the province leaves Confederation,
: And if the Inult secede, they say, Quebec will lose two-
thirds of its resource-rich northern territorcies.

For now, their aim is to ,"embarrasss’ the federal
government into delaying signing of. Bill c-9 the federal
ratification of the Jame Bay native land claims
agreement-until they can ensure cultural language
protection against Quebec’s. language legislation.

They say the James Bay agreement drawn up under
the previous Liberal provincial governemnt of Robert
Bourassa will be null
yolyed the ‘federal or provincial governments, or the
Inuit-defaults on any provision fo of the agreement.

_ The Inuit feel the province has already defaulted by
passing Bill 101, giving primacy to French in Quebec,
without adequate linguistic and cultural safeguards for

_ the natives, .
' The activists, many of them menbers of the Northern |

Quebec Inuit Association led by Mark Gordon, Charlie

’ Watt and Johnny Peres, heard at a public meeting

Friday night that Bill 101 had finally become law.

While natives from seven Ungava and Hudson Bay
communities sat listening quietly through translators
‘the activitists and members of the local community and
accused three rop Quebec civil servants sent here by

Cultural Development Minister Camille Laurin to try to .

smooth over the growing rift between native people and
the government.

The Inuit have demanded that all provincial officals,
including newly-arrived police reinforcements, leave
© area,

Mark Gordon, co-ordinator between the Canada-wide
Inuit Tapirist and the Norhtern Quebec Inuit
Association told the civil servants at the meeting in this
community 1,000 miles north of Montreal:“We have
been on this land for 4,000 years. You came here only

yesterday.
Watt said that although the Inuit signed the James
Bay agreement with the federal government “‘it is not
ww yet.”

“It willn not apply and we will not allow it to work,” :

said Watt. .

Federal Indian Affairs Minister Warren Allmand has -
said that Bill c-9 will not be enacted until the mt

problems with Bill 101 are ironed out.

The 4,000 Inuit in this region, about oge-quarter theP
- Eskimo population of Canada, claim an ancestry that

goes back 4,000 years,

They don't want to be told what language to use,
particularly in the native businesses that will be set up
with part of the James Bay Settlement.

The basic worry of the Inuit here is not loss of their
own language but loss of English which they say is their

second language. They are prepared to learn French, .

but onlyu at their own pace. ;
The Inuit say Queblec pald little attention to the
native people until the early 1060s. Before that, almost
