Mr. Speaker, the problem is that we would require an auditor general to oversee the spending of the municipalities. Basically aboriginal self-government is the creation of the municipalities by the federal government. They are not really nation states; they are really like municipalities.
The real answer in my mind is to require these organization to have the same type of rules of disclosure that exist in something like the access to information act or freedom of information. It is the elected people who have to determine whether a government at any level is doing its job properly. If we do not have those rules of transparency the people will never know and cannot act responsibly.
