Yes they should be compensated. The trauma and damage has been passed down through generations. There should be a base compensation and coverage of school, medical, rehab, therapy Ect. I do also think that they should also do a better job trying to Intergrate into society

 @9VF4YNBNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…6mos6MO

Yes, and we give their land back along with assistance in the form of education, training and social programs so they can live on their land.

 @9LW6VNFfrom Ontario  answered…11mos11MO

Canadian Aboriginals should be given land back. Instead of forcing them to integrate into Canadian society, we should see them as neighbours. If Canadians and Aboriginals worked together, it would be easier for both parties to navigate the system. Some of the funds should be directed towards proper living conditions, education, and training.

 @99YGP3Yfrom British Columbia  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes and the government should stop taking more of their lands. Military action should also be used less in dealing with protests.

 @96J7SWVfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but make the chief show where the money goes and what it’s used for

 @95HLMBCfrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

 @8ZTF98BNew Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but we should also offer more assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs.

 @8VYZLVYfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

As an indigenous citizen, the government funding causes more divided between aboriginal people and non-aboriginal peoples. By giving more to one population then the other, we will never succeed to be an equal society.

 @8VRG3DXfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8VLLY7Sfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Indigenous people definitely deserve compensation; however, further discussion needs to take place for appropriate funding to happen.

 @8VCV2P6from Newfoundland  answered…4yrs4Y

Release ALREADY OWNED funds to Indigenous Organizations that show fiscal responsibility, allow them to self-govern.

 @8VCSXRLfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

They should receive whatever monetary funds are necessary to assist with education, training, THERAPY, and social programs

 @8V4WT8Ffrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes but they should be receiving help with issues like no clean water and extreme prices in the north.

 @8V3GQPLfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

They need to show they are properly using the funding but should also start integrating society and learn how to function without funding.

 @8TXCQPHfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Instead of giving them money, we should make sure they have clean water, suitable grocery options, and all the same things someone non-indigenous had

 @8TTD28Qfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

I think they should receive clean water, funding for therapy, schooling, food, etc. But Chiefs should allocate that money fairly to everyone in their communities

 @8TNBZXSGreenfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

No, but the funding should be put to better the reserves, for example water supply.

 @8TJ4SZRfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

I think that in the current state of the indigenous peoples well being and lives I believe that they should be receiving much more funding and also we should be sending people to help them with the fresh water issue.

 @8SZB62Gfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

I think that the government should listen to what they are saying is fair for the past

 @8SPV872from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

I don't believe the solutions are solved with these answers as it's too complex.

 @8QWVC4Lfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, and the government should give them their land back as well as offer more assistance in the form of education, training, counselling, rehabilitation, etc

 @aaliyahvNew Democraticfrom New Brunswick  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, and the government should give them their land back. Also, we should offer assistance in the form of education, training and social programs, and abolish the Indian Act.

 @8P7GPDVfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Keep doing what your doing, I think the money should be better managed though

 @8NMY8K6Liberalfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

Take the Truth and reconciliation act seriously, and follow the recommendations laid out, it will solve all the problems

 @8JV5RYNNew Democraticfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but in the form of education, training and social programs. As well as funding for public education of why we are providing the funding and to help with systematic racism in our country towards our Aboriginal community.

 @8F9XB8Lfrom Alberta  answered…5yrs5Y

We should all have an equal amount of government fund given by the government.

 @9CKJFNNfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

 @99PZFMGfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, because if they are new to the country, then they are coming in with barely any money to keep a decent roof over their head so the government should be more supportive financially of the immigrants.

 @96QM73Hfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

We need to include Indigenous peoples in every we do. We need to build Canada's future together. Together we are much stronger.

 @8V5848Xfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

No they should just be treated with the same respect as any other citizen and get basic necessities

 @8TKD6G7from Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

 @9CXQ8MZfrom Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

I think it depends. Try making sure everyone has clean drinking water and can find the bodies of loved ones. Handing out money to some while others suffer is nonsense.

 @947VBF7from Ontario  answered…3yrs3Y

We should be providing them with more rights and giving them land, water, and food that is safe to live on and consume.

 @8PDQ35Dfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

The systems of dealing with Indigenous issues are fundamentally flawed and need extreme changes to be effective, whether or not that involves changing government funding
