The First Nations Governance Act was not a perfect piece of legislation - there is no such thing. However, the Governance Act (had Paul Martin not killed it) would have implemented more accountability and transperancy for native communities across Canada.
Check out what is currently going on in Norway House, Manitoba. A duly elected band councillor is "finally" allowed to see band documents, such as the financial statments. Unbelievable.
