Our governance in the area of housing will improve through new and upgraded housing policy and procedures with the goal to make it easier for community members to access housing purchases and housing upgrades. This also creates an opportunity for the existence of a housing market where members can more easily buy and sell houses within the community. We look forward to capacity development initiatives that will benefit our staff and community as a whole. We welcome this new housing initiative to Wahta Mohawks.” - Chief Philip Franks “The vision of Mattagami First Nation as a healthy, vibrant community is very much in line with the goals of the Fund.

Our children deserve a healthy environment, and that begins with a good home. Future development will bring growth and innovative fair market housing for new home owners. Chapleau Cree intends on building and maintaining homes for the approaching seasons. This is based on our vision and values of investing in the community and sustaining management of our treaty land settlement.” - Chief Keith Corston “Nuxalk hired a champion to manage the affairs related to housing and the Nation’s assets. This endeavour is supported by Chief and Council. The reality of an experienced housing person will benefit the Nation, providing that internal politics has no interference with growth of the Nation. This opportunity provides options to utilize the resources available to benefit the Nation, and sustain the community and build capacity to support the economy. Working with the First Nations Market Housing Fund will benefit the Nation’s growth as we move forward into the future.” – Chief Wally Webber The First Nations Market Housing Fund The Fund is a registered not-for-profit trust established by the Government of Canada, which was born out of what has become known as the Kelowna Accord. First Nations communities continue to lag behind the rest of Canada in health and most social and economic determinants — including housing. The latest figures from Statistics Canada, in 2011, show that 31 percent of on-reserve units were privately owned compared with approximately 69 percent of non-indigenous Canadians. The Fund helps First Nations families overcome the barriers to home ownership and close the housing gap. The federal government’s one-time investment of $300 million in the Fund has the potential to leverage $3 billion of investments in homes on reserve and on settlement lands and lands set aside for First Nations across Canada. The Fund helps First Nations communities by: Providing a 10% backstop for housing loans guaranteed by the First Nation; Providing financial leverage to negotiate with lenders for the best possible loan terms and conditions; Strengthening First Nations communities and supporting increased self-sufficiency by providing financial literacy and financial management tools, enhancing the governance framework, and developing capacity with education, information, and innovative services. The Fund works with financial institutions committed to providing a high level of service to First Nation governments: The Fund’s growing list of both national and regional financial institutions across Canada which have chosen to finance loans backed by the Fund, includes BMO; CIBC; Peace Hills Trust; First Nations Bank of Canada; Vancouver City Savings, Affinity and Valley First Credit Unions; Envision Financial; Desjardins Group; Northern Savings Credit Union; and six Caisse populaires in Ontario located in Hearst, Kapaskasing, Verner, Alban, Noëlville and Sturgeon Falls.

Moon River Métis Council 3 The First Nation, Métis and Inuit (FNMI) population of the North Simcoe Muskoka (NSM) region is approximately 20,000, accounting for approximately 6% of Ontario’s Indigenous inhabitants. The region is home to 4 First Nations communities and 2 Métis Community Councils: Moose Deer Point First Nation, Beausoleil First Nation and Chippewas of Rama (served by the Union of Ontario Indians), Wahta Mohawks (served by the Association of Iroquois and Allied Indians), the Georgian Bay Métis Council, and Moon River Métis Council. It should be noted here that Midland and Innisfil consecutively have the 1st and 2nd largest Métis populations in Ontario. In addition to these communities, NSM is home to a large urban Aboriginal population. There are now more Aboriginal people living in urban centers than there are living in Aboriginal territories, communities on reserves and Métis settlements. It is estimated that 65% of the Indigenous population of Simcoe Muskoka constitute a permanent presence throughout the region.
