Richard De La Ronde, head of Sandy Bay First Nation’s child welfare agency has been fired.
The Southern Chiefs Organization says this is because of financial irregularities.
Forensic auditors are looking into a company owned by De la Ronde that’s been receiving prepaid rent from the Children's Special Allowance fund to build Child and Family Services offices that aren’t complete.
The Southern First Nations Network of Care, took over the administration of Sandy Bay Child and Family Services in June after it noticed financial issues.
