FINANCE MEETING

I have had a few members talk about the Finance meeting the other night, Which gave no new info. When they talk about the money they just think about the 35%, And that  WAS millions , Be sides the 35% there still and is other money from INCA the trust, some of the business. Millions over the years have been spent. on failed ventures and that's not are fault . The blame goes to the people that have been elected since the Casino got here.  Why would the CFO get paid $244,970 and the Band Manager $ 169,034  are there jobs not to manager are money?  The business are costing us millions and  all on running in the red except for 2 and they thing this is good because people have jobs. What do you think?  This is insane to me or maybe its just me. They may have a new deal but i still don't think that the casino will be here for 20 or 30 years. The government does,nt care about us and never have . OLG is going to be looking for operators for the Casino and the Chief said they were going to put in a bid maybe with a partner. Good luck with that one Hope the partner has money as we don't. I still don't no whats happening with the trust. Some one fill me in... 48% of the$ 38 million budget is wages wow for such a small community doesn't leave much for any thing else .. But one good thing we have $250 million in collateral  like buildings equipment ..... so who do you sell the buildings to? and a lot of that equipment is just doing noting.No new houses and no development in the works.  And the rich get richer.

Land

 I think if people knew what life was going to be like they would have voted no for the Casino, Seem 's like we just keep giving more for the Casino and for what. More land now for a parking lot whats next?  What happen to the idea of a strip mall on Benson side road, Lets hope the land they have purchased gets turned into Band land soon for housing.Just the fact that we have no say in what is happen to our land is bad enough remember it belongs to all...

Just Saying.

The word protocol  should not be used in a failing corporations , Just saying .  I'm truly sick of here that word when every you have to ask something . Is the policy's and protocol for Chief and Council not likely . There is so much unnecessary red tape and policy's here its just plan stupid. Do you think other First Nation's are run this way no there not.When i talk to members from other First Nation they can't believe we put up with it . Stand Tall. And when i talk to some people here there like oh cant do that we have to follow the protocol what are they BRAIN WASHED. any way..............

PARKING LOT

Question's that were sent on May 16, 2012 on the Parking Lot. 1. Has  the  land been designated commercial, or is it still zoned residential?  2. H as the land been officially surrendered? Is this land in the Bands name. 3. Have all environmental issues or impacts been addressed, including permits , to meet criteria, under INAC's land management act? 4. Does the Band have the right to lease out a new piece of land without consultation and referendum by the members? And if so how did we do that? 5. Did  the Casino not purchase the Willison property for RV Campers to use?  Thank You Cheryle Snache
