CURRENT PROJECTS
The Four Pillars Initiative
In 2023, the Band Reparations Class Action lawsuit was settled against Canada for the collective harm suffered by Indigenous communities by Indian Residential Schools. As a result, Canada created a $2.8 billion dollar fund to support Four Pillars principles within each of the 325 opt-in communities.
Our team helps opted-in communities access their annual portion of this fund in support of their Four Pillars initiatives through assistance with researching, writing, and submitting their 10-year business plan. All elements of the project are fully owned and operated by the community.
There is no direct charge to the community for this service, all costs are covered within the funding program.
Specific Claims Funding Program
Our team helps connect First Nations with risk-free funding options from Canada's top banks, to pursue Specific Claims and seek justice against Canada for broken Treaty promises like Agricultural (Cows and Plows) Claims, Treaty Land Entitlement (TLE) Claims, and Annuities Claims. Funding covers expert research costs, legal fees, negotiation expenses, travel expenses for Chief and Council, and more, without having to take any money out of community accounts, or use expensive CFAs (Contingency Fee Agreements). There is no direct charge to the community for this service, all costs are covered within the funding program.
