Funding Tool
Hundreds of millions of federal dollars are earmarked each year for Indigenous individuals, communities, governments and organizations. However, navigating how to apply to access this funding, or even understanding what funding is available and for which types of projects or issues can be difficult for many.
That is why we developed this funding tool that will enable you to easily search for available funds offered by or in partnership with the Government of Canada by typing in any subject such as “Arts and Culture”, “Language Protection”, “Climate Change Adaptation”, “Connectivity” and so forth. If you already know the name of the fund and want to learn more about it such as eligibility requirements, how to apply, closing date and more, you can also enter the fund name into the search bar.
Please note, we will be updating this tool regularly.
Demystifying Parliament
Parliament is made up of two houses: the House of Commons and the Senate. As such, Parliament is a democratic institution that should be easily accessible and understood by all Canadians. Sometimes, though, that’s not the case; I’ve met many who have a limited understanding of how Parliament and, particularly, the Senate work. This is why we’ve created a series of reference guides aimed at demystifying Parliament in an easy-to-read and accessible way.
You can also visit the House of Commons and Senate webpages for more information.
Legislative Alerts
It is well-established that Indigenous communities and organizations often suffer from capacity limitations. It can be difficult to keep up with all the legislative, policy and regulatory changes that are brought forward by Parliament. My office will pull together a list of major legislation currently before Parliament; upcoming consultation and engagement sessions open to public participation and/or specifically targeted at Indigenous peoples; and links to Gazette 1 and 2 notices of interest on a quarterly basis.
