Why are these people living in these locales?

There is no way for them to sustain themselves there.

There are no employment opportunities.

These  locales may have been their ancestral homes but these locales can only support them to the standard of living that it supported those same ancestors  which, in today's Canada, is an unacceptably low standard of living.

They need education and relocation to places where they can have the same opportunities as anyone else.

This is glaringly obvious.

Keeping them where they are, and pouring money into an open drain, money that could be constructively used to educate, train and move these people into the same population centres that the rest of Canadians live and prosper in, is just a recipe for continued failure.
