This is only part of the Canadian federal government’s Segregated fiscal ‘obligations’ where ‘Aboriginal Peoples’ are concerned…and does not include the enormous network of Provincial and Municipal-government Aboriginal-only programs – programs that are in almost every Ministry and department:
“The federal government’s 2024-25 budget sets aside nearly $32 billion for ‘Indigenous’ {sic} Services Canada (‘I’SC) and Crown-‘Indigenous’ Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (C‘I’RNAC). That’s more than what Ottawa is spending on National Defence ($29.9 billion), and over half of what’s being transferred to provinces for health care through the Canada Health Transfer ($52.1 billion).
