I think it began in the 1970s when aboriginal people wanted to have schools on the reserves and to control their education systems. I think that was put in place. I think that the funding was never matched by provincial funding.
You're right, the funding for schools on reserve is.... The schools are much less funded. That's a fact; that's the way it is.
Talking about violence against women and domestic violence, I know about the fourth R program, because I was part of that group way back. We don't have that in first nations communities. The system is different, either the community runs the education system or Indian Affairs funds it but not at a level equal to that of the provinces, so we have to look at a lot of gaps. There's no equity.
