I can say that we are not untouchable. We are another nation that sits here like a sitting duck, waiting for these persons of criminality to come. They are an enterprise that sees money. The easy way to get into this money is by targeting vulnerable persons in Ontario. The vulnerable persons are these communities that are left without proper policing and other effective services that other police services have, like a drug unit, a dog handler, detectives and analysis on crime. We just don't have those kinds of things.
You're looking at a very vulnerable population of men and women who are sitting there and allowing these things.... They're not allowing it, but it comes in and it is affecting everybody.
As the chief of the nation, I can say that when the Robinson Huron Treaty settlement agreement of $10 billion came into the 21 nations within the treaty area, we definitely identified, as chiefs, that there was a high influx of undesirable people to our communities. As a result, now we're left with how we're going to try to get rid of this kind of behaviour. We're stuck trying to create bylaws that don't have any teeth to them.
