Supporting Treaty Implementation

Applications are not currently being accepted for this program.

The Supporting Treaty Implementation program was developed in 2007 with funding from the Ministry of Aboriginal Relations & Reconciliation. The intent of the program was to demonstrate options and provide examples of initiatives that local governments were undertaking to support treaty implementation activities in their communities.

The original program was open to Treaty Advisory Committees (TACs) and local governments affected by a signed or initialled final agreement or who were involved in the negotiation of a final agreement. Grants were available for pilot projects that supported treaty implementation through activities such as developing an agreement between a local government and First Nation, establishing a mentoring program, or undertaking a community education campaign.

In 2009, UBCM worked with the Ministry to enhance the existing program in order to support TACs to participate at treaty tables. This resulted in a program that provided the opportunity for TACs and/or local governments that met eligibility requirements to apply for operating funds for 2009/10. This was subsequently extended to 2010/11 and 2011/12.
