As for the rest of your post, you've clearly (sadly) explained how prison is not much of a deterrent.
My RCMP brother-in-law was head of a detachment in Saskatchewan, and had to get after one of the FN leaders for the above. He discovered that the leader and his family were taking trips to Vegas, and drove new expensive vehicles.

It sounds like a good suggestion to have the bands manage their own financial affairs, but without accountability, many will suffer.
