The Aboriginal Band councils need to be a part of Parliment and the Senate. Then thier voices can be heard, and needs adressed.
@9VF4YNBNew Democratic6mos6MO
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.
@9FFQGLD2yrs2Y
Oversight to ensure that all indigenous benefit from the funding
@99YGP3Y2yrs2Y
Yes and the government should stop taking more of their lands. Military action should also be used less in dealing with protests.
@95HLMBC3yrs3Y
We need to let aboriginals decide their path forward in Canada.
@8VYZLVY4yrs4Y
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.
@8VSM5VK4yrs4Y
Yes, but only for specific issues.
@8VLLY7S4yrs4Y
Indigenous people definitely deserve compensation; however, further discussion needs to take place for appropriate funding to happen.
@8VLCDPS4yrs4Y
No. They should get all of their land back that was taken with a promise of being returned. They should not be able to use their tax exempt outside of the reserve, and they should be forced to pay back any monies that were given to them for projects that they have just destroyed.
@8VHY8W94yrs4Y
Yes, but should be directed towards things that will actually make a substantial improvement in their quality of life.
@8VCV2P64yrs4Y
Release ALREADY OWNED funds to Indigenous Organizations that show fiscal responsibility, allow them to self-govern.
@8V563NZ4yrs4Y
Not familiar enough with current practices
@8Q3JBZW4yrs4Y
Yes, and the correct term is Indigenous.
@aaliyahvNew Democratic4yrs4Y
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.
Take the Truth and reconciliation act seriously, and follow the recommendations laid out, it will solve all the problems
@8CPRVQF5yrs5Y
I think there should be monetary compensation as well as education, training, and social programs
@8PDQ35D4yrs4Y
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
