Thank you for that
I think the issue we always face in the first nations community is the fact that very little or no funding comes for program development for many first nation communities across the country. It's always an issue, because first nations have different priorities across Canada. Some are struggling because of dysfunction in their families or they struggle because of poverty, lack of education, and a lack of resources. All of those issues are tied into this issue of where we're at today.
If proper research is done on issues that would help our first nation communities, I would totally support that. I think that's being looked at. Mr. Foss is working with the Assembly of First Nations to work on some of those initiatives.
So yes, it is a big issue. Funding is always an issue.
