I can answer that very clearly: No.

For the indigenous peoples in the north, because there are no reserves and because of the programs being transferred to third parties like the GNWT and CanNor, the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development has really stepped back. None of the funding comes north anymore. It's just those program dollars that I spoke to earlier. That really puts indigenous peoples on their heels here.
