@B466C5R2wks2W
I do not have enough information or perspective to know if that is what will help our indigenous people and I defer to them as to what they need for support
@B2J2KZ7 2mos2MO
Yes, and the government should give them their land back but I don't agree with how the funds are currently allocated we should also offer assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs
@B23CRQ34mos4MO
Yes, and we should, without compensation to settler-colonizers, give Indigenous people all of their land back and further compensate them due to the genocides they went through.
@9ZWJ9ZV4mos4MO
I believe Indigenous people should keep their government funds and promised treaty benefits, but also have more assistance for education and mental health
@8VTNTP34yrs4Y
Adding their voice to our government
@9DNYHPD2yrs2Y
Their communities should receive funds if they are below a certain standard

@8WBF34V3yrs3Y
I think the funds they get now is good and they should keep that the way is
@8W88RGN4yrs4Y
I would like to see reservations discontinued, aboriginals ought to be living amongst everyone with a a little more help from the government to get settled and be able to have equal access to education, safe water, more financial opportunities , etc
@8VSTDMFConservative4yrs4Y
I think we should be seeking for indigenous self-government.
@8V9HT5Q4yrs4Y
Funding to provide proper housing and clean water. Mental health and addiction supports. Additional funding provided on as needed basis to ensure they are treated equally in our society.
@8TYX4CL4yrs4Y
No we should keep funding but send military in to assist with building proper housing and running drinking water. But also assist with more education and programs and on and on
@8RBHMB44yrs4Y
They will work for the money they want like everyone else just because there abrionals doesnt mean they can get paid more
@8NWMMMQ4yrs4Y
Yes, there should also be first nations led reform policies to improve relations between settlers and aboriginal peoples. Quality of life improvements for the reserves are needed as is better education on the history of aboriginal peoples, particularly in the atrocities of the residential school system.
@8JSC5ZK4yrs4Y
We most recognize that all life is important and aboriginals should be entitled to benefits when needed.
@99NSPBL2yrs2Y
the sound't be getting the funding they are. they also should not bealoud not to br taxed. people are taxed to death and they dont have to it is not fare.
@98NCNVQConservative2yrs2Y
they should keep receiving them but have it stay the same amount of money
@8VQXB9B4yrs4Y
i think every one should be treated equaly
@8VBVZWV4yrs4Y
Yes, and funding should be discussed with the various indigenous (not aboriginal, which is an outdated term) groups. AND the land should be given back and drinking water restored to communities.
Aboriginals need to have self-governance and self-determination. Funding should be aimed at achieving this goal.
@93MDCDH3yrs3Y
Yes they should be given a chance to restore their culture, and become a force to work alongside Canadian citizens.
