remember back when I posted about MB Natives recieving an extra $75 million for housing. And How it was in my opinion just crazy that they said they could only build 480 houses for that.

Well guess what, its actually lower then that.. much much much lower. As in only 60 houses will be built for that. With the chiefs all deciding to spend the money on other stuff like road maintenance, instead of building the houses.

'I think it would be very interesting to look at how that money is being spent presently and if they're spending it appropriately.'—MP Vic Toews

and sorry I dont have a quote for the 60, it was on the news on the weekend.


So tell me, who exactly should the residents of reserves be outraged with over not having houses to live in??

Hey. They vote their Chiefs in, so when they complain...I have absolutely no sympathy for them. Build them teepees if they have no money left over after taking all their graft out.

I am still looking for ANY treaty information at all that says anything about providing them housing. I must be reading all these treaties wrong.

Heh heh ....and you won't find anything in there about being looked after from craddle to grave either, but that sure hasn't stopped some of these blood-sucken deadbeats.
