This article is a result of Gue's two-week visit to the Cree settlement of Wabasca in northern Alberta in 1966. While researching the level of difference in values of educational objectives between the Natives and the teachers, the author gained many new insights about this isolated community and the character of its people. Gue raves about the courtesy and hospitality he received during his stay, the traditional warmth of family relationships, the intellectual honesty of the Native pupils, the intensity of concentration and seriousness of the respondents, and their overall great sense of humour. Gue also mentions the darker side of his findings including lack of occupation and employment opportunities, the abuse of alcohol, and some linguistic challenges. Overall, this article is a compliment to the deep-rooted culture of the Cree in Wabasca, and to other isolated Native communities.
