Author: Jordan Bateman 2014/09/10

B.C. First Nation Financial Transparency Act documents are coming in for 2015-16 –we are still waiting for the filings of 23 of the 186 bands in BC. Here’s what we have as of November 16, 2016:

The 2015-16 B.C. $100,000 Club thus far (elected First Nations officials making six figures):

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 about $140,000.

Is Canada Off Track?

Canada has problems. You see them at gas station. You see them at the grocery store. You see them on your taxes.

Is anyone listening to you to find out where you think Canada’s off track and what you think we could do to make things better?
