That's the thing I'm hearing when I meet with indigenous leaders and especially first nations. They spend a lot of their time trying to fill out endless grant applications, but it's one community versus another in some cases because of sometimes limited funds. It just seems to be a vicious circle we're in where they at some point, as you pointed out, have to have not only the right people in place on the ground, but also the ability to fill out the right applications in order to potentially be successful in getting funding.
