A federal department grossly understated First Nations high school dropout rates despite billions in new spending, according to an internal report.
Department of Indigenous Services funding for First Nations-managed schools in the period from 2012 to 2018 increased from $1.3 billion a year to $1.5 billion. “Notably, funding increased to more than $1.8 billion per year from 2018 and is forecast in 2022 at approximately $1.9 billion,” wrote auditors.
Per capita costs increased from $12,000 to $14,000 per student, a 17 percent increase. “While the raw per capita funding for First Nations on-reserve is high relative to provincial ministries, it does not account for the legislative, economic and historical context of First Nations,” said the report.
Data indicates as few as 15 percent of students schooled on-reserve finish Grade 12.
“The status quo of the approach to education program support will not lead to desired outcomes and will not support reconciliation and self-determination,” said the Evaluation Of The Elementary And Secondary Program. “Results for First Nation learners have not shown improvements over recent years juxtaposed against significant funding increases in that time.”
Auditors found graduation rates were a fraction of those claimed by the department, and far below the success rate for First Nations children who attended ordinary public schools off-reserve. “The education success of First Nations students on-reserve is low and not showing broad signs of improvement,” said Evaluation.
The department has claimed a graduation rate of 45 percent, but only counted students who started their final year of high school. “When considering the students who did not make it to their final year the figure is far lower,” wrote auditors, adding: “There has not been measurable improvement over time.”

First Nations students who finished high school numbered: 44 percent in British Columbia;
39 percent in Atlantic Canada; 29 percent in Alberta; 25 percent in Québec; 24 percent in Saskatchewan; 20 percent in Ontario; 15 percent in Manitoba. Indigenous children fared better at off-reserve schools, said Evaluation.“The implications of these observations are no doubt deeply complex,” wrote auditors. “Economic, social, historical and geographic issues likely affect different regions, communities and individuals differently.”The point of billions […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
