Investments in education would get more of our people working and help eliminate poverty

Investments in education would get more of our people working and help eliminate poverty. As well, our governments should have access to credit to spark their economies and develop partnerships with the private sector. Our request for the loan fund amounts to 0.5 percent of the $200 billion that this budget puts into the credit system. We believe our request was reasonable and we will continue to pursue it because it will benefit both First Nations
and Canada.
