To put this into proper perspective, the editorial should name the political party and the politicians involved in the "Sixties Scoop". In 1965 Liberals were in power with Lester Pearson as Prime Minister. In 1968 Liberals continued in power under Pierre Trudeau. The three Ministers of Indian and Northern Affairs during the "Sixties Scoop" were all Liberals, Arthur Laing, Jean Marchand and Jean Chretien.
