Taking 98% of our own source because this was the agreement in the 1923 amalgamation. Also we the members are not giving the money to council or the Squamish band employees. There is also proof of money been stolen and over the past 20 years the council and some employees have mismanaged our own source revenue plus we get no financial detailed report on anything. We will not use the own source revenue programs and services but we are still entitled to government funded programs and services. WE WANT WHAT IS RIGHTFULLY OUR.

it is about time someone stood up and said something, we have been asking for transparency for years and all we get is the run around while they line their own pockets, enough is enough!

You counsellors should be ashamed of yourselves! You know exactly what goes on when you sign up for the job and yet you take the position anyways, how do most of you sleep at night knowing your people and communities are struggling and yet you guys just take take take in silence and won’t and can’t make a change for your people! You guys are just as bad as the previous councillors we have had before! Stand up and make change already! Quit being greedy and selfish. Give us the money we are owed already !!!!

I agree. Not all of us are utilizing these programs and not all of us are chosen to be funded for education. Our money is Not EQUALLY handed out. I've been turned down even for the sports fund. But yet we support and vote for council who say they will help our members. And they are not doing what they promise. I hope and pray you get the amount of signatures for this to go through. Thank you for all you do to help us Squamish members. This is at least a start in the right direction.

Why are you earning a lot of money in that band office? But you're keeping your own people poor!
