Give your head a shake and get the religious sh*t out and then there would be room for information that has been going on for decades.

The indigenous of this country have been on the government teat since the beginning and have never had to justify or prove what they do with tne money they get.

Chiefs that are millionaires by their wage alone and do nto have to share with theitribe.

The indigenous have been getting a slice of every major contract the government lets for decades. It is a requirement the contract winners must do business wit the indigenous.

Every government since day one has been paying off the indigenous.

Nothing new or revolutionary, just stuff for a slow news day LOL

Indigenous Services Canada (ISC), which currently vets applicants, and the departments that preceded it going back to 1996, did not always demand status cards or other documents from vendors until 2022, according to Piragasanathar’s statement.

“In years past,” he explained, “businesses were required to sign an attestation” that they were Indigenous. They also faced the possibility of an audit, he said.

In 2022, ISC tightened the requirements by demanding documentation from new applicants, Piragasanathar said. He did not explain why.

The Trudeau government has directed billions of dollars to Indigenous businesses over the past two years, but never addressed the PSIB’s underlying problems, according to a collaborative investigation between Global News and researchers at First Nations University of Canada. (Learn more about how the investigation unfolded.)

The program has recently come under fire from federal MPs for negligent auditing practices that potentially allow non-Indigenous businesses to exploit the system at the expense of Indigenous enterprises — and their communities."

This is just another example of how the Trudeau government throws Canadian taxpayer money around without serious safeguards and controls.
