from sda:
The CBC has a piece up about the poor natives in Manitoba. Maclean's would be jealous.
They feature a photo of a shack that may not be a house that they lifted off the internet.
They talk to a chief that blames the Feds.
What a surprise!
I looked around a bit on the 'Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada' site.
The reserve that the house sits on has a bank account of close to $20 mil. TWENTY MILLION .
The Wasagamack FN also has yet to disclose their salaries(as of two months ago). Their books are comparable to Theresa of Attawapiskat's, maybe worse. The auditor(PKBW)cites possible fraud in social programs as one of the reasons they could not give the band a favourable grade.
The Wasagamack FN were originally part of a larger reserve which split into four.
On three of those reserves the surname McDougall or Harper is shared by 17 of the 26 chiefs and council. The CBC talked to a McDougall.
The CBC and the FN's are not faring well in the comments that have been let through. People are starting to wake up to this nonsense. If the economy gets worse, sympathy will become even scarcer.
