No, and we should slowly phase out funding

all that comes from getting babied is that you are going to act like a baby, not responable and you need help to do ever thing.

If you think they still need funding, you are saying that they are incapable of operating on their own like the rest of society, which is racism. They should have the exact same rights as any citizen of Canada

 @9FLS633from Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Aboriginals lived here before we did, and now some of them don't even have running water. The government also wanted to put a pipeline where they lived, the Aboriginals have been through so much we need to help fund them if they want it.

 @9FL3B4Nfrom British Columbia  disagreed…2yrs2Y

The government has wronged the natives in a way that has left many of their communities very poor and without resources

 @9FF93ZPfrom Alberta  disagreed…2yrs2Y

I feel like if we phased out Native Funding our government would be more hated on than it already is, Canadians already complain enough about how we send too much to other countries and not enough to OUR homeless and OUR native people, therefore if we phased out native funding I would imagine that there would be a revolution-type situation, which we've already had between the First Nations and Canadian Militia.

Gallup Poll Bombshell: Over Half of Ukrainians Ready for Peace

More than half of Ukrainians want talks to end the war with Russia, according to the latest Gallup polls released on Tuesday, the war’s 1,000th day. The surveys, conducted in August and October, found that 52 percent of Ukrainians want their nation to negotiate an end to the war in Eastern Europe that has been raging for over two-and-half years. Almost four in 10 Ukrainians, 38 percent, want their military to keep fighting until it wins the war. Some 9 percent did not know or refused to share their opinion on the matter. The outlook of the Ukrainians is different from the period when the invasion began in February 2022. Just months after Russia’s invasion kicked off, around 73 percent of Ukrainians wanted to keep fighting. The support for continued fighting dropped among Ukrainians in 2023 when 63 percent wanted the conflict to continue while 27 percent preferred a negotiated peace, according to the survey. The poll comes as Ukraine fired U.S.-made long-range missiles inside Russia for the first time since the restriction was reportedly lifted by the Biden administration. On the same day, Russian President Vladimir Putin lowered the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons. The support for continuing the war has dropped among Ukrainians across the country, dipping to below 50 percent throughout the nation this year, Gallup noted. The biggest declines were in regions that are far from the front lines. Over half of Ukrainians, 52 percent, agree that Kyiv should be open to making some territorial concessions as part of a cease-fire, according to the poll. Around 38 percent disagreed while another 10 percent did not know.
