Annual Report 2019/2020 ABORIGINAL FIREFIGHTERS ASSOCIATION OF CANADA ANNUAL REPORT 2019/2020 AFAC ANNUAL REPORT 2019/2020 1 The Aboriginal Firefighters Association of Canada (AFAC) was formed in 1991 and officially incorporated on May 4, 1995. AFAC is formally recognized and supported by the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) through Resolution 18-92 Recognition of an Aboriginal Firefighters Association of Canada (AFAC) and Resolution 33-94 Creation of an AFN Chiefs’ Committee on Fire and Emergency Services.

This year was the 30th anniversary of the National Firefighting Competition which, along with our Annual General Meeting, was hosted by Eskasoni First Nation in Nova Scotia. We continued our collaboration with national fire organizations to ensure active knowledge transfer. Our National Poster Campaign encouraged schools to learn about fire safety using the NFPA Fire Prevention week messaging. Much of our work this year was focused on the Indigenous Fire Marshal Office project. We completed the planned technical and community engagement sessions to gather information about the programs that are needed and to understand some of the legislative and organizational considerations. Building from research, engagement findings, and our work with regional service providers we began the work to develop a suite of programs to meet the needs of Indigenous communities across the country. During February and March 2020, we adapted our planned approach to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Having worked virtually as a national organization we were able to leverage our existing IT infrastructure to continue operations in a virtual format. It is an honour to continue serving AFAC in our work to support safer communities.

It has been well documented that even in the CMAs where census data is available, it often significantly underestimates the true size of the Aboriginal Regina Qu’Appelle Health Region population. This occurs for many reasons, including the fact that Aboriginal people tend to fill out fewer The purpose of this brief paper is to provide a census forms. Moreover, conventional methods for preliminary analysis of available population and estimating the gap in reporting do not always take demographic data for the First Nations and Métis account of the larger size of Aboriginal people who live within the geographic

  • Government Spending and Own-Source Revenue for Canada’S Aboriginals : a Comparative Analysis
    MARCH 2016 Government Spending and Own-Source Revenue for Canada’s Aboriginals : A Comparative Analysis. By Ravina Bains and Kayla Ishkanian March 2016 Government Spending and Own-Source Revenue for Canada’s Aboriginals: A Comparative Analysis by Ravina Bains and Kayla Ishkanian fraserinstitute.org Contents Executive summary / iii Introduction / 1 Spending on Canada’s Aboriginals / 2 Own-source revenue / 12 Conclusion / 18 References / 19 About the authors / 23 Acknowledgments / 23 Publishing information / 23 Supporting the Fraser Institute / 24 Purpose, funding, & independence / 24 About the Fraser Institute / 25 Editorial Advisory Board / 26 fraserinstitute.org / i fraserinstitute.org Executive summary With average unemployment rates on reserve above 20 percent and graduation rates below 40 percent, there is a clear gap in outcomes between Aboriginals and non-Aboriginals in Canada. This is sometimes blamed on funding dispar- ities. This study provides a fact-based evaluation of the oft-heard claims that spending on Canada’s aboriginal population is not comparable to spending on other Canadians. It examines actual spending on aboriginal Canadians using data from the federal department of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada, Health Canada, and provincial governments, sources where aborig- inal spending was clearly identified in the public accounts. Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) The data used to compare INAC spending on aboriginal matters with total federal program spending runs from 1946/47 through 2013/14. Per-person comparisons date from 1949/50. The increase in spending on Canada’s aboriginal peoples has been sig- nificant. In real terms, total department spending on Canada’s aboriginal peoples rose from $82 million annually in 1946/47 to over $7.9 billion in 2013/14 (all figures in this report are inflation-adjusted to 2015 dollars).
