On the First Naions Land Management Act referenced by Mr. Clarke, I happen to know there are many first nations that are in line but simply can't access the funding. In fact, unless it's changed in this current fiscal year, the funding was never completely expended. I would agree with you that the FNLMA is a good tool for self-sufficiency and economic development, but there's simply not enough money to support the first nations interested in taking that up.
