Wow 26 handguns. Isn't that what children are allowed in the US ?
Simply one example. There's many, many more. It's widely known that a large source of illegal weapons are smuggled into Canada through native reserves. But go ahead, pretend like it's not a problem.

Go back to post #65 to read what I said about funding.

So you believe that the government funding hasn't helped the standard of living at all ? I call bullshit on that one
I didn't say the funding hasn't helped the standard of living at all. What I did say (if you cared to read my post #65) is that another year will go by, they'll piss away another $30 billion and there'll still be many communities without clean drinking water.

The thing is it the federal government had any brains :rolleyes: they would refrain from giving them money and install the infrastructure themselves

Where do you get this idea from ?

Here are the actual facts :

the number of active long-term drinking water advisories on First Nations has dropped by 73% since 2015. Today, 96% of all First Nations communities do not have a long-term water advisory.

You guys have no idea how it works. Let me reiterate : Trudeau does not send plane loads of cash to the reserves. They do pay for contractors to come in and supply things like water purification, build houses fix roads etc

Then why do the majority of reservations have no access to clean water and electricity?:unsure:
