4 members of my extended family worked in the FN environment - for may years. Nurse practitioner, construction foreman, electrical contracting, RCMP ..... They ALL gave up in total frustration because the reserve system merely perpetuates a cultural dead end life style sustained by "free" $$ Billions. My posts are based on their direct communications with me -  none of which would pass the G&M censor. There is no point in pretending that such enclaves are "nations", or short of "money", or that the skies were pink and unicorns spread good will and happiness before the white man came. Ask yourselves why their youth committ suicide, girls and women escape, "boil water" advisories persist, housing is abysmal, ..... vague feel-good programs of "reconciliation" and endless enquiries have wasted $$ hundreds of millions devoid of progress.
I wished it were otherwise but it is NOT ! It serves no purpose to continuously evade the deeper root causes -  political correctness is also a dead end.
