 The Georgia Review
Faulkner wrote the letter six weeks after the death of Barr at age 100, in reply to a request from Methodist Bishop Robert E. Jones for his views on the impact of African-American nurses on Southern race relations.

Faulkner said in future grants would be limited to only one group in each region: a group "serving all Canadians of Native origin." Under the criteria both the Federation of Saskatchewan Indians and the Metis Society of Saskatchewan would be ineligible for the grants, as would the majority of Native organizations across the country.
Faulkner said "it was clear that the federal government could not afford to give communications equipment to, all native organizations, all the Friendship Centres and all the special interest groups such as youth and women."
Faulkner warned that there was little money available at present even for such groups and the financing of such groups would have to be staggered over a number of years.
