The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) is speaking out over claims made in a federal forensic audit of some of its finances, after the investigation deemed more than $30 million transactions as “questionable.”

It adds that Indigenous Services Canada (ISC), which ordered KPMG LLP to conduct the audit, has not responded to multiple requests for the full report.
