  1. Interesting article.

    I wonder what the people would say if they were allowed to set the salaries of Chief and Council?!

    Im sure we wouldnt be paying them over $100,000 each per year. But then, you can t have employees make more than the Chief, can you?!

    Amd since Rama has employees who make over $100,000 annually (thanks in part to some outrageous salary grid they paid someone to create, and then they adopted it), we will never see it come down unnless we have a new Chief, and a new Council filled with people who are not head nodders.

    Well its something to hope for :)

  2. This is how it should be on every First Nation the people set the salaries for the Chief and Council. Band money belongs to the band members , but here in Rama we don,t have a say in how it is used hope for change.
