The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations is calling on the federal government to provide funding for Act C-92, which received Royal Assent a year ago. The Act is intended to keep First Nations children and youth connected to their families and communities, and under the authority and jurisdiction of First Nations. FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron says, without funding, some First Nations are apprehensive about moving forward as they could end up facing huge deficits. In fact, because of the Act, First Nations and their agencies are being denied reimbursement for prevention funding that they were eligible for the year before. The FSIN says that funding helps First Nations work with at-risk families to restore safe and thriving homes for children and youth.
