History of Indian policy / prepared by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, Policy Planning and Research.: R34-1/2E-PDF
"In spite of differences in specific aspects of Indian policy, all the European powers who colonized the Americas shared one basic assumption: the aboriginal inhabitants of the land were subjects of the heads of the colonizing states. This assumption has remained to this day the basis of Indian policy in North America. Whatever the peculiar regional or chronological conditions, or the attitudes of the natives themselves, Indian people were not, and still are not, considered to be sovereign peoples"--Responsibility for a people, p. [1].
