Giraud, M., "Note on the Half-Breed Problem in Manitoba," 1937.

Note: The title and description of this document uses wording that was common to mainstream society of that time period in history. As such, it contains language that is no longer in common use and may offend some readers. This wording should not be construed to represent the views of the Indigenous Studies Portal or the University of Saskatchewan Library. Article was of interest to Paul Chartrand, head of the Native Studies Department at the University of Manitoba who makes fun of the incredibly racist tone of the article on a one sheet poster he perhaps kept on the door of his office. Giraud argues that the Metis are incapable of imitating the superior farming methods of their Anglo-Saxon neighbours, and unable to integrate into reserve communities because of racial prejudice.
