So zero responsibility will be expected from the people living in these homes. People will be hired to clean up after them, deliver supplies etc etc et. All paid for by local hard working taxpayers. Canada is truly broken

Finally!

Yeah just like when Safeway opened a gas bar and promised low prices. That was a dream. Can’t wait to be able to buy a case of 100 toilet paper.

35-unit wind farm proposed for Thunder Bay area

Canada is trying to do better. Just like stopping forcibly sterilizing Indigenous women is a change for the better. Looking into systemic racism is a change for the better. Don't even bother mentioning reserve land, since if you don't like new things you probably would have complained when Indigenous people no longer needed written permission to leave the rez. If you want to know anything about respresentation, call your representative. You may not know who they are or agree with what they do, but they are indeed representing you and a lot of other people.

" whose traditional territories are said to include the proposed project site" Why is this a new thing? Traditional territories are not reserve lands. Why am I paying taxes with no representation

As usual, all the nay sayers are out in full force on this site. Perhaps some of you should get involved so that you can wag your finger directly?

'They have to walk the walk': Health authority slams Indigenous Services Canada

You said it yourself, they went "beyond simple transportation" therefore it was probably unecessary. Everyone else has to arrange their own very costly transporation and pay out of pocket to go out of town for appointments, and apply to get reimbursed for sometimes only a portion of that. Why should some people get special treatment and others not? Also, a wheelchair taxi has always needed to be prebooked. This is not new and common knowledge amongst most. 80 year olds in LTC who use a wheelchair going for a simple eye doctor appt need to prebook a wheelchair taxi too. Things don't just appear and happen because you expect them to. Expecting to have detailed information including status card info are not unreasonable requirements, especially when these funds come from our taxpayer dollars.

Sounds childish to me. Maybe decide what you oppose based on logic instead of spite.

No, remember taxpayers are going to be paying someone to clean up all the garbage and used needles.

And don’t forget the free chauffeur service we taxpayers are forced to provide as well.

Nope easier to complain and be judgemental from this side of the keyboard.

Well isn't that interest. I seem to remember this: Fort William First Nation (FWFN) strongly opposed the Big Thunder Wind Park project proposed by Horizon Wind on the Nor'Wester Mountains near Thunder Bay, citing a lack of consultation and environmental threats to traditional lands, water, and moose habitat. The community fought the project in court and through protests until the developer's contract was cancelled by the province in 2014. So I think everybody else should oppose this as well.
