A report from Manitoba's auditor general uncovered mismanagement at a Native housing agency but recommends no criminal charges.
The Aiyawin Corporation has been under investigation for more than a year after allegations of financial problems and nepotism. The report confirmed serious problems at the agency.
Aiyawin receives $2 million in government funds to provide homes to low-income and elderly Natives in Winnipeg.
