Strategic Outcome: Good governance and co-operative relationships for First Nations, Inuit and Northerners (The Government)

Program Activity: Co-operative Relationships

Name of Transfer Payment Program: Transfer payments for Co-operative Relationships

Start date: N/A

End date: ongoing

Description: This program activity addresses constitutional and historic obligations, reduces conflict through negotiation and enables all parties to work together toward reconciliation. Co-operative Relationships are about mutual respect. They establish an atmosphere of trust, accountability and respectful partnerships among governments, First Nations and Inuit. This atmosphere, in turn, supports social, economic and cultural growth in First Nation and Inuit communities and increases their self-reliance. Co-operative Relationships are the basis for mutually reached resolution of claims and other rights issues. Through Co-operative Relationships, funds are provided to First Nations and Inuit in support of the activities within the program activity including negotiation of claims and self-government agreements, certainty is obtained over the ownership, use, and the management of land and resources. First Nations and Inuit are effectively represented in federal policy decisions and the Crown duty to consult is supported. Funds are transferred to Aboriginal recipients through contributions and loans agreements. Funding levels are determined based on proposals submitted by the Aboriginal people and are based on program guidelines and terms and conditions.

Expected results: Relationships between parties based on trust, respect, understanding, shared responsibilities, accountability, rights and dialogue.

Start date: N/A

End date: ongoing

Description: By working in partnership, federal, provincial/territorial governments, and Aboriginal parties are able to create and maintain the necessary structures (such as education, child care etc.) to support ongoing and evolving relationships within a historical and modern context.

Strategic Outcome: Full participation of First Nations, Inuit and Métis individuals and communities in the economy (The Land and Economy)

Program Activity: Aboriginal Economic Development

Name of Transfer Payment Program: Transfer payments for Aboriginal Economic Development

Start date: N/A

End date: ongoing

Description: This program activity recognizes the synergies between economic development, lands activities, and business development. It recognizes that the federal government has a role to play in creating the conditions that will foster Aboriginal economic development. As INAC does not hold all the economic levers, it must forge strategic partnerships with other levels of government, the private sector, Aboriginal organizations and other stakeholders to succeed in increasing the participation of Aboriginal Canadians in the economy. The sub-activities (SAs) and sub-sub-activities (SSAs) under this program activity contribute to the expected results: viable Aboriginal businesses and opportunity-ready communities. Strengthening business development capacity tools will encourage Aboriginal Canadians to start and/or expand their own businesses, thereby contributing to viable Aboriginal businesses. Increasing access to and control of Aboriginal lands and natural resources, and building community/institutional capacity, will enable Aboriginal communities to fully utilize their assets for economic development, contributing to opportunity-ready communities. The growing Aboriginal land and resource base will also increase economic opportunities for Aboriginal communities, contributing to an increased number of Aboriginal start-up businesses.

Expected results:

• Viable Aboriginal businesses.
• Opportunity ready communities
