I don't think you meant it this way, but I feel a bit uncomfortable that your comment plays into the "corrupt First Nations" narrative.

Of course, some First Nations have misspent funds sometimes, but so do Doug Ford and Danielle Smith. Ontario and Alberta are just rich enough to absorb mistake after mistake. Do Ontarians need oversight or can they govern themselves? Meanwhile, any mistake by First nations groups are scrutinized as moral failings, and stereotyped onto the whole racial group.
