got a good email on the subject today !! enjoy
Perhaps it's time to trim the fat from the top.
The average Native Reserve has a population of 1,000 people. Each Reserve has a Chief and about 11 Council members and school trustees. Add in all the administrators and then throw in all of the Regional Band Councils, Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs and others.
Winnipeg now has around 750,000 people. If we had the same Political system as the natives, Winnipeg would have:
750 Mayors earning $150k
8250 Councillors earning $150k +
3000 School Trustees
Several thousand administrators doing whatever they do ???
Millions of dollars in travel budgets
You get the idea ..... Winnipeg would be broke, before we even turned on the lights !
