Should Canadian aboriginals receive more government funds?

Make sure all reserves are up to humane standards and repair or build new infrastructure where needed. Give back more land and stop seizing it for pipelines. More social programs and training.

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.

We should work with indigenous communities and leaders and figure out strategies in the most equitable way to help them build their communities up that reduces systemic racism. Whether its through funding, programs or regulation, they should be at the forefront at making these decisions.

This is not the correct question, rather it should be: are we meeting the obligations committed to during negotiations.

They should continue to receive funds, and we should offer assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs as well.

Yes as the government underfunds First Nations already, I believe making new treaties and giving portions of crown land back/money is the answer to reconciliation

Yes, and they should recive assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs along with monetary funds and giving them their land back

Yes, we should be redirecting a lot of our current military funding towards our Indigenous populations and we should also be providing assistance that goes beyond funding (i.e. Indigenous-centric education, social programs to help people find affordable housing, get help with substance use issues, etc.).

Yes, if they need it or request over it.

Remain the same and offer advice for their communities on how to improve infrastructure at no cost.

Yes, indigenous peoples should have a clean body of water which will be untouched to surrounding communities to maintain their traditional practices as well.

Northern communities, yes

"government funding" is the payment from the treaty that was signed (which is next to nothing), the only payment indigenous people get is welfare or EI, as there are few job oppurtunities on reserves, which is funds that are accessible to the rest of Canadians

Yes, no matter the amount of current "funds", quality of life in indigenous communities, such as the lack of clean water supply which is supposed to be regulated by the federal government, is severely lacking.

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

Yes given them their land back, work with them not for them. Also do not use the word aboriginal!!!

Yes with help for mental illness and addiction

No I don’t think they need to receive more funds. I think they should receive clean drinking water and resources to help them with trauma but also they should just have clean drinking water it’s a basic need!!

Yes and we should integrate them into society as citizens. What I mean by this is that we should use the funds to build up and give courses in school so we can integrate their culture into ours so it doesn't die out.

Aboriginal people should receive what they were granted under the treaties and any additional moneys, services, etc that all Canadians receive.

I don’t think any funding is necessary but there should be the same drinking water at reserves that civilians within the city have

No, but the government should invest in infrastructure, access to clean drinking water and ressources to support communities (suicide prevention, health and education services, social services, etc.)

No, they should be funded as much as we are.

Why don’t we ask them what they need?

Yes, by funding their economy

Aboriginal people should have equal access to safe and comfortable accommodations and food as other Canadians. We should provide funds to provide necessities and also improve their quality of life to a standard that we would expect for any Canadian.

Indigenous Canadians need funding for several social programs to bring them in-line with what is offered to other Canadians.

Yes, they should be compensated for their hardships and resources as well as receive assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs.

No, offer assistance in the form of : education, training and social programs and they should be further compensated for their hardships and use of resources.

They should not be called aboriginals, that's offensive

The funds should be given to each Aboriginal person individually instead of giving it to the Chief and we should offer assistance in social programs, trainings, and education as well as psychological help

Yes but also provide more assistance in education, housing, social programs, etc.

yes but not alot more

yes but funds should be given to individuals and not their trib leaders

Yes to a point. Because last year (July 2020) was the first time I received the funds from the land agreement Treaty in almost 4-5 years. Also there should be more money funded to communities/reservations for things such as education, housing, or sports/social programs etc.

Ask aboriginal people.

Yes, but instead of monetary funds, we should offer assistance in the form of education, housing, and social programs

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.

In between, I think money should be put towards education into proper money management and to improving their economy and making more sustainable.

Yes, but only in important fields.

Yes and they should have control of their land and resources. The Canadian government needs to reconcile with First Nations and deal with the systemic racism that exist

Yes, and we should provide assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs (for all citizens).

Yes, If they keep their land cleaner and less trashed.

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.

It is my understanding that the funds received by aboriginal people was money owed to them and that is finally getting to them with a whole lot of restrictions as to how they can spend it.

Not receive into their pockets for spending but to benefit the communities of their people yes.

Yes, they should be integrated into our society as citizens

Maybe not more funds but better funds and creating a liveable life for them still with their beliefs. And give them clean running water.

Yes, but the government also needs to provide Indigenous people with more and better education, food services, social programs, clean water, better houses, and an overall nicer environment

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

If they wish to live on their own terms then shouldn't they operate alone? Aside from land reserves and freedom to practice religion they should be left to their own devices.

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
