Never happened? Spent the money on Shaman and exotic health spas? We need to audit the AFN and where all that health care money went. In most provinces Aboriginal healthcare is pretty much the same as regular provincial healthcare. Not sure why we're all of a sudden calling on the federal government when the AFN and provinces, BC, agreed to take over AFN healthcare. Palliative? The best the provinces can usually do is a medical specialist visitor, not expensive and delicate equipment one would find in a hospital. Most hospices are located near hospitals for obvious reasons. End of life care. So, why didn't AFN invest in these if this is a priority?
