Six Nations: Province Throwing Money Around - In The Wrong Direction

Henco bought what they named Douglas Creek Estates (now the Reclamation) and invested about $6 million into it. The province bought it for about $16 million and put it in trust (it seems like putting it in trust was just a ploy to get the Iroquois off the land). The province has handed out hundreds of thousands of dollars to people in Caledonia. Now it is giving the OPP an extra $20 million, reports the Spectator.

The province should stop wasting money. It would be far cheaper, far better and far more just if it just gave the land back.
