That's because the government doesn't know how to fix the problem. Politicians are so messed up. Money rarely gets into the hands of the people who need it - programs that don't work and hiring consultants.
Similar to how governments deal with the First Nations people. Throw money and the chiefs get rich, not the indians.
How does one find the chief of an indian reserve? Look for the house that is 5 times bigger and has three new cars parked in the driveway.
Every child in this country with a native background (1/16th native or more), gets funding from the federal government. This is on top of what other students get. This money is spent on hiring social workers to go around teaching these kids how to make bannock and suncatchers. Once in a while the money is spent on bringing in an artist to show the kids how to carve wood.
The government doesn't care how the money gets spent. All the politicians care about is that money was thrown at the people and that means they tried. It keeps the opposition party quiet.
