That's a really good point. People from Calgary have a really skewed opinion on the amount of money that native people receive. Go to a reserve in Labrador or hell, even out here on Vancouver Island and there is no where near that kind of wealth being distributed. Most of it is subsistence wealth.
Also, I find some of the posts above totally deplorable. Read a fataing book on the topic before you think you know all about native people, native culture and the issues affecting them. Otherwise you look like an ignorant racist ass with no fataing clue what you're talking about.
Blech.
