Slightly more than half of B.C.’s 205 First Nations bands have now filed their First Nations Financial Transparency Act documents. A lot of attention has gone to Kwikwetlem’s millionaire chief Ron Giesbrecht, but a reporter asked us for a list of all six-figured First Nations politicians. Here is what we have thus far: 

• Roberta Dendys, councillor, Fort Nelson, $105,509
• Richard Peters, chief, Cheslatta Carrier, $123,033
• James Frank, chief, Kanaka Bar, $117,000
• Donny van Somer, chief, Kwadacha, $107,922
• Tumia Knott, councillor, Kwantlen, $118,895
• Marilyn Gabriel, chief, Kwantlen, $106,011
• Ron Giesbrecht, chief, Kwikwetlem, $914,219
• Clarence Louie, chief, Osoyoos, $146,369
• Beverly Stager, councillor, Prophet River, $102,837
• Doug White, chief, Snuneymuxw, $108,022
• David Joseph Jimmie, chief, Squiala, $105,910

Bear in mind, this is all tax-free money. To take home $100,000 off-reserve in B.C. last year, you would have needed a gross income of $142,227.
