First nations salaries

Miss Jessica Lee said:
Chief Ron Giesbrecht of Kwikwetlem First Nation in Coquitlam was paid $914,219 plus $16,574 in expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31. Kwikwetlem has a registered population of 81, according to Aboriginal Affairs Canada.

I'd be most curious to find out the income of the other 80 residents for comparison.

Bet it doesn't add up to Ron's salary, more like his expenses.

Something is seriously wrong with the Indian Act and how the First Nations get compensated.

Lions and tigers and bears !

Compared to other elected officials ?





also the part ... oh lets just say, that was ignored from the article ...

The chief had, in addition to his regular duties, taken over the role of economic development officer last September. The job comes with an $80,000 salary plus a bonus of 10% on gross profit from "capital projects and business opportunities" secured on behalf of Kwikwetlem - in this case, $800,000. That's in addition to his $4,800 chief salary.

The statement noted that the bonus was removed in a new contract negotiated April 1.



And the title of this thread says "salaries" yet only shows one.
What .... they could not find one more salary that put the First Nations in a bad light ?

Or compared to say an 80 person law firm. Or ad agency, to keep the comparisons focussed on parasites contributing nothing to the greater good. The Star's coverage of the same guy also notes that most of the amount was the bonus for the Economic Development guy who the Chief took over from.

Is this money and business the Band's or not? Where's the similar self-righteousness about the tax dollars advertising Canada's Economic Action Plan put in the pocket of their ad agency's CEO?

We do note that CPoC's Trained Seal Choir has chimed in right on cue, and I apologize to lawyers and ad folks for dragging them into OHG's stupid attempt to distract us from their real agenda: To cement the support of knee-jerks and bigots that they hope will make CPoC the Natural Governing Party as long as the sun shines and the waters flow.

No problems in Ottawa; just keep focussed on them pesky redskins.
 
Kudos to Harper for forcing the chiefs to tell the band members how much of the band's money they are getting. That's accountability.
