OTTAWA — The Indigenous Services minister says community leaders shouldn’t worry about zeros in the recent federal budget for programs their members rely on.
Instead, Mandy Gull-Masty says those holes are an opportunity for leaders to suggest where the government should allocate money in the future.
“I also want them to be encouraged by the fact that we still have more work to do to define what the future looks like in the budget for Indigenous Peoples,” Gull-Masty said in an interview with The Canadian Press.
