Advocates say making First Nations accessible will cost more than AFN estimates

Last week, the Assembly of First Nations estimated that the federal government must invest $349.2 billion now to ensure First Nations have access to similar infrastructure to non-Indigenous communities by 2030. That includes $1.6 billion to address accessibilities needs, but advocates say that is the bare minimum of what needs to be done.
