Who We Are and What We Do
Through the historic government-to-government Framework Agreement on First Nation Land Management, the First Nations Lands Advisory Board (LAB) is dedicated to supporting First Nations communities in their efforts to re-establish control over their lands, natural resources and environment.
The Framework Agreement is a First Nations driven arrangement that provides the opportunity to resume control over their reserve lands, natural resources and environment. Since the Framework Agreement’s signing in1996, an ever-growing number of First Nations communities across Canada have resumed their inherent authority over their reserve lands, natural resources and environment by replacing the 44 lands-related sections of the Indian Act with a community developed and approved land code.
The mission of the LAB remains steadfast: “First Nations working together to resume jurisdiction over reserve lands and resources."
