B. After Confederation, differences arose bet~een Canada and

the Province as to the allo.tment and management of Indian

Reserves. In order to settle these differences Canada and the

Province entered into the McKenna-McBride Agreement dated

September 24, 1912, which Agreement provided for the

establishment of a Royal Commission to make recommendations

respecting the adjustment of the acreage of Indian Reserves in

British Columbia by the addition of lands to the then existing

Reserves, the creation of ne~ Reserves, and the reduction of the

acreage of existing Reserves, with the consent of the Indians, to

such size as the Commissioners thought reasonably sufficient for

the purposes of such Indians;

C. The Commission's Report was ~pproved and confirmed by the

Province by the Indian Affairs Settlement Act S.B.C. 1919 c. 32.

In 1920, the Parliament of Canada enacted the British Columbia

Indian Affairs Settlement Act S.C. 1920 which enabled the

Governor General in Council to order the reduction or cutting-off

of lands from Indian Reserves in British Columbia without the

prior consent of the Indians.

D. At all times between 1871 and July 29, 1938, when the

Province by Order-in-Council 1036 of 1938 conveyed certain lands

to Canada in trust for the use and benefit of the Indians of the

Province of British Columbia as Indian Reserves, the Province

held title to the lands allotted to the Band as Reserves,

including those lands which were cut-off from the Reserves of the
