Key functionary in Bobby Cameron’s steal was Dawn Walker
Among the millions stolen by the FSIN, some of it went to former CEO Dawn Walker. She is best known for her high-profile disappearance and abduction of her child in July of 2022, which she orchestrated. The pair were found in Oregon after a search and rescue effort in Saskatoon. She admitted to forgery, as well as abduction in contravention of a custody or parenting order. She received a suspended sentence. More than half a million was paid to Walker over seven separate agreements. Walker received a severance payout and was rehired a week later. Walker also contracted through a personal company for $105k. Walker oversaw FSIN’s overall budget. $246,524 paid to her was “ineligible.”
The day after Bobby Cameron blamed whites for his multi-million steal, Vice chief Craig McCallum has broken ranks and said he “cannot, in good conscience” stand behind members of the FSIN executive.
McCallum, elected fourth vice chief in October 2023, said he can’t speak for decisions made before his term, “but I can speak to the need for change going forward.” McCallum was called out by Muskeg Lake Cree Nation Chief Kelly Wolfe. “You need to separate yourselves from the old boys club. You need to do what’s right,” Wolfe said. The old boys club are thieves Bobby Cameron (bobby.cameron@fsin.com), David Pratt (David.Pratt@fsin.com), Edward Lerat (Edward.Lerat@fsin.com) and Fabian Head. (Fabian.Head@fsin.com)

Stomach turning thief Bobby Cameron has FINALLY responded …
“These attacks seem to be fueled by malicious intentions and have contributed to heightened racial tensions by perpetuating negative stereotypes about First Nations.”
FSIN thief Bobby Cameron (bobby.cameron@fsin.com) is being compared to a parasite by his own people. “When this number came out, I was embarrassed because I was like ‘how could our leadership do this to our people’,” The FSIN and Bobby Cameron are being accused by chiefs of preying on their people’s poverty. “And then publicly we have homelessness, mental health, poverty, addictions, all of these things. And it’s like no wonder things are a mess.”
Indigenous Services Canada was prompted to do the audit by complaints raised with the department’s Assessment and Investigation Services Branch (AISB) in March 2024. “We will take action on the findings and recommendations. We are carefully considering next steps, and will consult with any appropriate authorities as required,” said ISC. Many are demanding RCMP initiate criminal charges against Bobby Cameron, AGAIN.
Numbers from the robbery by Bobby Cameron and his FSIN have appeared. Here
Bobby Cameron and his FSIN won’t answer any questions about his $34m steal. At an unrelated press conference at the FSIN headquarters, representatives from the gangster organization informed reporters they were only allowed to ask questions unrelated to their theft of multi-millions.
The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) and chief Bobby Cameron (bobby.cameron@fsin.com) needs to explain expenses totalling $34,251,566 after an audit conducted by Indigenous Services Canada. Transactions reviewed show $3,732,982 as ineligible program expenditures, $30,362,990 as questionable and $155,595 as unsupported. FSIN received funding between April 1, 2020 and March 31, 2023. Questions related to $7,925,783 for administration fees and $962,796 for the FSIN’s new office building. Nearly $400k was burnt off in questionable fleet vehicle spending, and more than $260k in travel expenses.

In another example, photocopy charges exceeded actual costs by $73,974.
The FSIN (info@fsin.com) claims to represent over 160,000 people in 74 First Nations across Saskatchewan. FSIN election rules prohibit candidates with a conviction of fraud or theft from running for office. That surely didn’t stop Chief Bobby Cameron. His criminal record includes a 1993 conviction for break and enter and theft. He was re-elected for his fourth term as chief of the FSIN in 2024. He was first elected in 2015. Cameron shouldn’t have been on the ballot.
Chief Bobby Cameron, First Vice-Chief David Pratt, Second Vice-Chief Dutch Lerat, Third Vice-Chief Fabian Head and Fourth Vice-Chief Craig McCallum.

Information surfaced only because of a lawsuit filed against former chief electoral officer, Myrna O’Soup-Bushie. (myrna.osoup-bushie@tc.gc.ca.) Her many concerns resulted in a confrontational response from the FSIN. The organization issued a press release calling O’Soup-Bushie’s report “defamatory and slanderous.”
The FSIN and its then-Chief Operating Officer Dawn Walker filed a defamation lawsuit against Myrna O’Soup on Mar. 11, 2022, one week after O’Soup allegedly sent an email to Chiefs and published a Facebook post saying she had learned new information that “seriously compromises the integrity” of the election results and calling on the RCMP to investigate.
In March 2024, Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) announced it would conduct a forensic audit of FSIN’s finances. The investigation covers a five-year span starting in 2019. In June 2025 it was reported the FSIN audit shows $20 million unaccounted for. The audit was conducted by ISC, with KPMG. The final report went to ISC August 4. Indigenous Services Canada doesn’t comment on ongoing audits until they are final. “Once a forensic audit is final, a summary of the findings will be published on the Departmental website.” Rookie MP Mandy Gull-Masty (mandy.gull-masty@parl.gc.ca) was named Minister of ISC by Prime Minister Mark Carney in May 2025.
FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron has repeatedly declined repeated requests from media to comment on the audit. In a July 14 press release, Chief Kirby Constant of the James Smith Cree Nation called on the FSIN and Chief Bobby Cameron to provide transparency to the Nations it claims to represent. This as news came of a forensic audit for James Smith Cree Nation (JSCN). All expenditures from April 1, 2018, to present will be examined.

After nearly 16 years Chief Wally Burns was finally shown the door at JSCN in March 2024. |

FSIN lawyer Darren Winegarden (winegarden@sasktel.net) was spanked/suspended by the Sasketchewan Law Society in 2015 for trust account irregularities. More shit appeared in 2017. |
The Assembly of First Nations brags about it’s leadership. “As part of the Executive Committee, our Regional Chiefs work with the National Chief and the Chairperson of the Knowledge Keepers Council”. Front and center is Bobby Cameron. Here.

James Smith Cree Nation and Poundmaker have also confirmed forensic audits into their steals.
