Indian-Eskimo Association of Canada.

File consists of a very small number of the records of the Indian-Eskimo Association (IEA), along with a note indicating that the records from the early days of the Association (1960-1970) were donated by Mrs. W.H.Clark to the "Indian Archives at Trent University" in 1984.

Included in this file are fragmentary materials related to the IEA and its records including typescript notes describing the history and goals of the IEA, one item of correspondence relating to Indian and Northern Affairs and the work of the Canadian Association in Support of Native Peoples and its subsequent demise, a report on the second annual meeting and conference of the IEA in 1961, and a report by Clare Clark on the grand opening of Kainai Industries Ltd. (wholly owned Indian plant for the manufacture of portable prefabricated houses) at the Blood Reserve in Standoff, Alberta on July 10, 1971. Also in the file is a clipping from the Toronto Star dated July 3, 1974 reporting on the appointment of Ralph Steinhauer to the position of Lieutenant-Governor of Alberta. In light of Hon. Steinhauer's "native" background and roots this appointment is believed to have positive implications for native culture and issues according to this article.

Of note is a confidential report to the executive committee of the IEA written by Clare Clark in 1967. This report relates to a seminar on Government-Voluntary Relations sponsored by the Canadian Association for Adult Education in May 1967. A report of this seminar was originally prepared at the request of the Canadian Council on Rural Development for circulation to the executive. Clare Clark writes an additional report which aims to enlarge on the ideas discussed at this seminar and to give her own interpretation of how these ideas are relevant to the IEA. It also includes correspondence conducted between IEA. President, Martin P. O'Connell, and Clare Clark in March 1968 which relates to Clare's report which, according to Mr. Martin P. O'Connell, will be the subject of discussion at the next executive meeting
