They get free university tuition. And completely permissive hunting and fishing rights. The only reason they don’t constitute an elite overclass in Canada is because of their own shortcomings. If you gave almost any other ethnic group those benefits (and there’s more than that) they’d be the richest demographic in Canada in a generation or two.
The natives I know didn't get free university admission. The feds gave their individual band a pot of education money and the band divied up the monies as they saw fit.
The problem is that it adds another lawyer of bureaucracy and corruption that in some ways is worse than simple free tuition.
The band I knew had the councilors embezzling money to their grandmothers taking fake paper courses while denying applications by actual youth with enough potential to escape their desolate community.
