Chiefs in Ontario say a heavy-handed federal funding model is prompting a public-security crisis on reserves

Police chiefs presiding over First Nations police forces in Ontario have launched a human-rights complaint alleging that the federal government is placing reserves in crisis by failing to deliver adequate funding.

The police chiefs’ claim echoes a similar case over alleged underfunding of the Indigenous child-welfare system. A CHRT ruling in 2016 led to a $40-billion compensation plan announced five years later. That complaint also sought $40,000 for each affected person.that government underfunding of the Mashteuiatsh Police Service in Pekuakamiulnuatsh First Nation in Quebec was discriminatory.

who runs the Treaty Three Police Service across a sprawling part of northwestern Ontario, said in an interview. While police response times are at issue across rural Canada, First Nations can face much higher crime rates than other communities. Last September, a man killed 11 people and wounded 18 others in a mass stabbing centred on thein northern Saskatchewan. That violent rampage drew national attention and raised questions about why nearest police were posted at a detachment 45 kilometres away.

So....more money That's pretty much it right?

Good. Fuckin loser Trudeau sends billions to his gay butt buddy weirdo lover Zelensky while leaving canadians with dirty drinking water.

Should having at least shoulder length Be a qualification to be a native chief?

First Nation's are the only group that will band together to call BS on these fcking crooks and not back down with their threats because they DGAF and actually have some balls. The rest of us can't agree on what color the sun is, because they keep driving wedges.

Stop giving them money

More and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more and more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Close down the reserves , live with CDNs.

Gee…. First Nations asking for more free stuff. Go figure!! Get a job like the rest of us and start paying taxes!!!

Just write down the final number already, money won’t solve their problems anyways.

“Give us more money”

Is this what police do?

What a joke. JimMcMurtry01 here’s more silliness.

More whiskey money!

So there are 2 million indiginous in this country and they recieve more money per person than the rest of us. If the wa t to be independent cut them off.

Lol, honestly i dont even care anymore. Get as much as you can before the Russians invade

Being 'the first' you would figure these guys could be self sufficient?

The last time they did (for FNCW) they won $40 billion. Now this is going to be an annual affair.

The complaints will never stop, so stop feeding the whine machine and tell them to enter the 21st century.

Where’s Trudeau’s costume? Normally Mr Dressup!…
