It’s not just a matter of additional funding to build more houses in First Nations communities.
There’s greater openness to local First Nations owning their own homes. I would even say that, with the help of funding, more and more people living on reserve can afford part or all of the cost of a house.
There are indeed members of First Nations who need social housing, as is the case everywhere in the country, because their income isn’t enough to become homeowners.
That said, funding infrastructure on reserve can also be useful.
