OTTAWA — Indigenous health authorities that service Western Canadian First Nations say they are experiencing problems accessing enough medical and protective equipment needed to protect their citizens from COVID-19.Absolutely not.
Senior representatives from regional First Nations health authorities in Saskatchewan and British Columbia told a Commons committee Friday they need more personal protective equipment.
"We have delays in accessing PPE," said Tara Campbell, executive director of the Northern Inter-Tribal Health Authority in Saskatchewan.
"On-reserve populations' PPE in Saskatchewan are distributed by the province and unfulfilled requests are then forward to the national emergency stockpile."
She also said medical supplies such as thermometers and testing supplies are not readily available and that nursing capacity "remains a critical issue."
First off, why are the good people of Saskatchewan still wasting money on these people? We've already discovered that they want to ignore the white man laws that governments are so anxious to force upon the rest of us. To use the parlance of the Viro Fascist Toronto public health official, if they're going to be this selfish than they have no right to PPE provided by social distancing taxpayers.
Then, to add insult to injury, the same lazy Indians who want special powers also want those funded as well.
Bellau also noted a rising dispute in B.C. about what level of government — federal, provincial or Indigenous — should pay the increased costs being incurred by First Nations that have hired security personnel to block or limit access to their communities to prevent outbreaks COVID-19.You don't have resource revenue. You have money given to you hand over fist by Canadian taxpayers.
"(Indigenous Services Canada) cannot rely on First Nations utilizing our own resource revenue as a means of protecting our communities," she said.
And this is a great time to cut you off.
