How is governance structured on First Nations reserves?

Through direct governance by the federal government
By band chiefs and councillors
By the Canadian Senate
By appointments from the Prime Minister

The correct answer is: By band chiefs and councillors

First Nations reserves are self-governing communities that have their own form of governance. This means that the members of the community have a say in how their community is run. Band chiefs and councillors are elected by the members of the reserve and are responsible for making decisions on behalf of the community. Option A is incorrect because while the federal government does play a role in providing funding and resources to First Nations reserves, they do not have direct control over governance. Option C is incorrect because the Canadian Senate is a governmental body that has no authority over First Nations governance. Option D is incorrect because the Prime Minister appoints members to the Senate, but this does not have a direct impact on governance on First Nations reserves.
