Sovereign nations don't need to be welfare states of other nations and accept massive funding without some expectation of repayment.

So the Natives like Quebec are not and cannot be considered sovereign nations as they won't survive without Canadian funding.

AS much as the Natives have said that they haven't been consulted enough when it comes to the consuming of natural resources they have and have agreed to them in the fact that the people on these reservations have take jobs on these projects in a lot of cases and have provided services and goods to these projects.
