Millions coming to help indigenous people living in Montreal – iHeartRadio.ca
Native affairs minister Geoffrey Kelly announcing an $8.9 million investment into local organizations helping indigenous people living in urban centres.
“If we don’t support community groups we end up trying to help homeless people at the two places that cost the most and are the least effective,” says Minister Kelly. “That’s at an emergency room or at a jail cell.”
$5 million has been dog eared for services that will improve psychological, social, educational and cultural health of the indigenous community.
