    Rama's Casino Revenue sharing proposal was the most generous of all First Nations.
    The Provincial government and other First Nations agreed and signed the deal, end of story, honour it.

    Since the opening, Rama has not recieved any monies from the profit of the Casino while all other First Nations Received monies regularly.

    Our money is tied up in trust, all we can access is the interest on the Trust. With this as well as leveraging help from the government, have been able to provide ALL infrastructure and resources to support the Casino and the situation it created.

    Maybe in someone's article on how greedy we are, this should be mentioned.

    Rama has not received any monies from the casino profits while all first nations receive money regularly. Ours is tied up in the trust.This seems a strange statement. How much is in the trust that these exorbitant salaries are being taken out along with the pay-outs to community members etc.
    This just seems like ranting without facts to back the statement up. Please clarify this statement for the benefit of all.
