Michael Ferguson: Federal Government

federal government: Auditor general Michael Ferguson says attempts to deal with the fallout of the residential school system are a mess as the Truth and Reconciliation Commission bickers with the federal government over what historical documents need to be provided and how they should be preserved, according to 660 News. At stake are the mental and physical health of First Nations families across Canada at a time when aboriginal communities are crying out for better treatment from the federal government and OTTAWA The federal auditor general says two of the governments key pillars meant to improve the lives of aboriginal peoples have gone awry because of infighting, poor co-ordination and lack of planning. And he says Ottawas plans to deal with rising rates of diabetes especially on First Nations reserves are showing no results because government programs arent working together or checking the effectiveness of their projects.
