The thing is, of that $500+ million, only $90 million came from the govt.
Unfortunately, the problem is much more complex than something like the homeless problem where money and proper supports in place can make a big difference.


I'd say you are right. Perhaps the place to start rehabilitation is to find out what the citizens want and what THEY are ready to do, to help make it happen. This "puzzle" has a thousand pieces & it will probably take a thousand different ideas to get them all in place!



Moving may be a partial solution, but moving a bunch of problems could be counter productive. Is there REALLY NO opportunities for employment there?

I was (involved in) this problem in 1968, a long time ago, it takes time and patience.

look, if all the politico meatheads and injun chiefs that have taken shots at this (and many other hell hole projects in the country) and it still reeks of corruption, stop giving it money.

look stupid, if you can't see habitual mismanagement and corruption for what it is, I'll count you as one of the meatheads that acquiesces to the never-ending story.

I subscribe to the policy that I don't owe anyone or any peoples in this country a goddamn dime, especially when genuine help is fukked-away by elders, higher-ups and lawyers.

And the dimes the squeamish fence-sitters and do-gooders have doled out over a century to quieten the 'problem' have been squandered. too bad so sad. let the so-called nations sort themselves out now.

Look f**king genius, even though the world owes you a living, let's just suppose for sake of argument, that the money has been squandered by higher ups ...............you really think the children should be held accountable for that? I recently requested that Gerry post a list of acceptable opinions - maybe you could do the same so we lower peons don't get confused about what opinions are acceptable to you. "Meat head" fits you perfectly.................a piece with a big f**king bone in it! :) :) :) :)

all we owe you is a old guy pension, and paying for your urologist visit. that's enough. government doesn't owe me anything other than my tax refund every year. I make my own way rather nicely thank you. if you can't, won't or haven't...sorry about your luck and that of you spawn, kin and future descendants. aboriginal kids (and this is not just about children ya dummy) deserve exactly what you provided or didn't provide, to your own.

get it now?

Every single cent that JT gave to 'others' rather than Canadians, all while we have our children, including 9 year old wanting to die rather than live the life they are forced to live, is a deep dark shame. I, for one, who pay and have paid lots of taxes for many years; always paid firstly for my Canadian brothers and sisters in need. To hear that 9 yrs old children are trying to kill themselves is simply sickening. If anybody knows about a rally in Ottawa about this one, please post.

What do you propose as a solution? What can you buy to stop this?

The topic of the thread aside do you really believe you have enough f**king brains to be calling other people stupid and dummies? :) :)

Contrary to what some people seem to think I believe there is a solution to the problem & we have to keep trying different ways until we get it right. I'd rather see the money and effort going to helping our own people than importing problems from overseas. I don't believe in neglecting them either but let's help our own people first..............at least the ones still at an age where they can be influenced!

just you.


Yeah, I would think one person is ample for your lame mentality! :) :)

You're proposing to bury the problem in cash.

... Hasn't worked-out too well to date

he's typical of most easily swayed ignorant progs in this country...they ignore the pattern of obvious graft and crookedness...hope the next batch of 'chiefs' will finally be ok...maybe he hopes for more arms-length oversight that in turns pisses off the natives because old stocks are intervening, sticking their noses in indian business...maybe he hopes no supervision is necessary at all...we'll just heap the cash on them 'for the kids'...or some such talking point...he also ignores the very wealthy bands that also choose to ignore their fellow people by keeping their own lucky share of casino or oil revenues...but let's keep doing the same thing, let's keep at it.

no thank you.

Just the opposite, change the procedure.

Maybe if you took a long hard look in the mirror you'd catch on to who is really ignorant. Most of the chiefs are OK, it's just a few who spoil it for the rest. You're the one here who focuses on money at least directly. Perhaps before you have the qualification to be a moderator you should learn how to read. On the topic of mods I don't believe one of their duties is to abuse the participants, most of which can run rings around you in the intellect department. Every time you open your big trap a little more credibility goes down the drain. Enjoy your evening. :) :) :)

We are talking about a whole tribe of crack heads. You going to magically make them unaddicted with a wand?
