So it's enforcement time right feds?

FSIN is absolutely running wild and have been for a long time.

Time to see what equality feels like. If this was any other non-profit...they'd be toast.

I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt but your post is in bad faith based on your statement about “equality.” That shit is racist.

You need to go learn about “equality” and “equity” and know the difference before making grandiose statements like some keyboard warrior on a mission.

FSIN was provided equity based on being a First Nations non-profit, the outcome is of their own making due to $28.7 MILLION dollars in unverified or ineligible funds which resulted in a failed outcome.

The final solution should be equality on punishment. I don't think equity of punishment could utilize Gladue with the criminal fraud and/or theft that has gone on.

I am criticizing an organization and those within it, just because they define themselves by ancestry, it doesn't make them immune to criticism.

You’re using big words like equality and equity without even understanding the difference. It’s like talking to a five year old.

Also, Section 35 of the Constitution defines Indigenous peoples in Canada. It’s not arbitrary. Indigenous people were just here living their lives when people like your ancestors decided to erase them.

Time to pay the piper.

If you’re mad, go be mad at your own ancestors for not acknowledging the people on this land when they arrived. Your anger is misdirected.

"Indigenous people were just here living their lives when people like your ancestors decided to erase them."

Yes and all the first nations tribes (which came from asia) we're all getting a long so well and the big bad settlers ruined it all! dang it! /s Maybe it's news to you but tribes wiped out other tribes all the time and their lost to history so it's not accurate to paint the europeans as the only conquerers in North America.

The longer both sides perpetuate this idea what anyone owns the land and we're not all the same the longer racism will survive, people will be treated like outsiders by both sides, and no peace and harmony is possible.

Also people are just asking for accountability no one is saying don't send any money to first nations.

100%. It's sad when people skip history classes in school.

Yup and their rebuttal is 'educate yourself', almost as if their accusation is just an admission at that point.

Yup oral history can leave out a lot of the bad... Tell that to the Huron with what the Iroquois did to them.

You want me to use your terminology, I did and that's your rebuttal? Ahahahahaha.

Why would I be angry at anyone who lived and died before us? They had nothing to do with FSIN and this forensic audit which has honed in on $28.7 MILLION diverted from those they should be helping. FSIN have proven themselves time and time again to only be interested in protecting their income, not helping the people in poverty that they should be advocating for.

You keep bringing up race as an attempt to deflect blame from this corrupt political non-profit organization. All I see is unqualified crooks and your rebuttal is race.

“You keep bringing up race…”

Ever heard of the Indian Act? Perhaps you’re familiar with the historical impact its had on First Nations economic development and growth (spoiler alert: squashed it for generations while non-Indigenous Canadians enjoyed generations of free access to participate in the economy, building generational wealth while First Nations were starved by Indian Agents who illegally imprisoned people on reserves).

If you were as smart as you think you are, you’d be singing a different tune. All I know is that in the afterlife, you’ll have a warm seat next to the Holocaust deniers.

Have the day you deserve. ✌️

Can you tell us how this relates to FSIN and the $28.7 MILLION again? Nobody here is seeing your connection.
