Canada pledges $1.55B to Jordan’s Principle by 2027 to fix service delays for First Nations children, but systemic issues persist.
The federal government has committed $1.55 billion to Jordan’s Principle through 2027 to ensure First Nations children receive timely health, social, and educational services without delays from jurisdictional disputes.
While leaders welcome the funding as immediate relief, they stress ongoing systemic issues persist, including a backlog of over 130,000 unresolved cases, inconsistent eligibility decisions, and restrictive operational guidelines that limit coverage.
Advocates criticize a recent bulletin narrowing service eligibility, calling it arbitrary and rooted in colonial thinking, and demand reforms to ensure equitable access.
Despite the funding, concerns remain about long-term sustainability and full implementation.
