If Ontario is building the roads then we are subsidizing the mining company as there is no tax dollars coming from the native communities. It will be interesting to these who will be responsible for maintaining these roads on an ongoing basis as this will be in the millions. Once the roads are built the implied assumption is that the taxpayer will be on the hook for others services as well. In th end this is going to cost us billions, with little to no return Keep in mind that there is no taxation for those who live on reserves. The expectation is a lot more money will come into the reserve, but that won't change the funding from the fed or the province.
