Community input and feedback - Department of Indigenous Services Act 2019

On behalf of the Chiefs Steering Committee of the First Nations Technical Advisory Group (TSAG), is sharing information about the Department of Indigenous Services Transfer Act 2019 (link to document) specifically on the Infrastructure program and services Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) currently provides. The intent of this engagement is to provide important information regarding the Government of Canada’s proposed transfer of services and what it may mean to the delivery of Capital and Operations & Maintenance in your Nation.

As part of the engagement process, we are asking for input from Nations, to learn from leadership, and those directly doing the work, to understand your capacity needs, as well as the immediate and long-term risks and benefits for your Nations.

The information shared in this survey will be anonymous (no names or Nations identified) and will be used as part of a report to all Alberta First Nations, TSAG, Indigenous Services Canada and select Alberta Government representatives/offices. This report will be shared at a meeting in Edmonton on April 26th & 27th, 2023, with First Nations Leadership and government.

Thank you for taking the time to do this survey, the more insight and input you can provide the more feedback and understanding we can share with all recipients of the report.
