They have a lot of strengths, it's about using those strengths and opportunites they have to benefit themselves and the land that they live on.
As mentioned before, many reserves have tried to capitalize on their land, and there are many examples of requests going to the Federal government and going stagnant as the Federal government actually has no one to approve them, or bounces them around internally for a few years. It really isn't "their land" and that needs to change.
