Treaties for the first thing, and also just an abstract moral idea that we don't leave people behind.

For the second thing, self-perpetuating poverty and trauma.

The treaties the federal government has say they will maintain water infrastructure?

Don't get me wrong, they should, and we shouldn't leave people behind. I'm just trying to figure it all out

Hmm. I'm actually not sure. There's a bunch of treaties, and each says a bunch of things. I don't think it ever comes down to provinces to supply things for First Nations, though, which is kind of what you suggest when you call them a municipality.
