FNESC Welcomes Tribunal Ruling on Support for First Nations Children

The Tribunal ruled that the Federal Government has discriminated against First Nations children by providing less funding to children on reserve than elsewhere in Canada.

Tyrone McNeill says the ruling opens an opportunity to look for ways to better support First Nations children.
