After handing Attawapiskat $90 million, a few intelligent folks are asking where it went??!! Chief Theresa Spence has no credible clue. Whaaaat!!*()&#$! How could 1,800 people still live in squalour after being handed that much money? There are only 1,800 people living there. That's it. 1,800. And Spence added she was "offended" that the PM asked about it in the House of Commons. Finally, someone is looking into it. Just heard a CBC reporter quoting from an audit that shows "significant problems" in the management of the band's finances. Well, hello?! This is one can of worms that desperately needs opening.
Just listening to Regional Grand Chief Stan Louttit on TV who calls it..."a systemic shortfall of resources". Whaaaat!! And as to the $90 million? Louttit says the government is trying to blame the community. He then added they don't get enough money.
That's it on this file for now. But stay tuned, the airwaves will be filled with this until they aren't.

Read yesterday's column in The Calgary Herald, by Mark Milke, Fraser Institute expert on aboriginal affairs. He nails it. (Sorry, I have no clue how to add a link to my blog??)
