RE: Our Failure & Poor Relations

RE: Our Failure & Poor RelationsIts ok to disagree - and I am not doubting that C &C have skewed info with on-reserve members - however you have to realize that over 50% of the voting members of this FN live off the reserve and the election for C &C is only two years away - why has TKO never reached out to the majority of community members who live out of the community - but yet vote in local elections??????
This is a key group to work with - the majority of these people live off the reserve due to lack of housing, lack of educational opportunities and lack of employment & economic opportunities.   I just can't believe it.....
In my opinion our poor relationships and failure with the community and our lack of reaching out continues to cost us shareholder millions if not tens of millions of dollars in potential market cap and will likely continue to hamper progress of Prosperity....
Could you imagine if we had a petition signed by the majority of Band members wanting Prosperity to be developed in a responsible and socially inclusive manner that benefited both TKO and the community - I wonder what that would do for our stock price...... I think that trumps a BCR (Band Council Resolution) any day of the week.....
