   Comments: It is shameful that the federal and provincial governments do not recognize how important indigenous-controlled institutions are to Aboriginal education.

    Comments: This is not a handout. This is essential funding for essential education. In the spirit of fairness, and the government's duty to act fairly, FNTI must receive the necessary funding. It can be seen that this institution helps to fulfil the government's fiduciary duty to First Nations Peoples and their attempts to overcome centuries of domination.

    Comments: This is an issue of fundamental human rights to secure equity of operational funding and equity in the conferring of accreditation for high quality post secondary education for every Ontario Institution, without exception, which meets the appropriate educational criteria.

    Comments: I think it unfair to shut down the school, I'm going to school to get educated. If the school shuts down i feel that i wasted a year of education and the funding to get educated.

    Comments: All First Nations post secondary institutions should receive core funding like all other schools in Ontario. By withholding this they are forced to operate on a tentative budget. Long term planning goes by the wayside. I sat as a board member at Six Nations Polytec for ten years and faced the yearly struggle for funding. If Ontario and Canada are seriously creating opportunities for First Nations people they should allow core funding that would allow our institutions the opportunity to create the infrastructure that we so surely need.
