BATC gets funding from Nation Rebuilding Program

It is part of a $100 million investment by the government over five years (since 2018) to “support Indigenous groups’ efforts towards developing their own path to reconstituting their nations,” according to the government’s news release. According to Kathy Kissick, chief financial officer for BATC, they had submitted a proposal to Crown Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) for 2020-21, as part of a multi-year submission for 2020-23 as a collaborative Nation Rebuilding Program for their seven nations: Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation, Moosomin First Nation, Mosquito Grizzly Bear’s Head Lean Man First nation, Red Pheasant First Nation, Saulteaux First Nation, Stoney Knoll Band and Sweetgrass First Nation.

Multi-million dollar compensation for Mosquito

The compensation is as a result of “breach of Crown fiduciary duty arising in 1905 out of a surrender of lands from Indian Reserve No. 110/111 (IR 110/111)” according to the decision of the Specific Claims Tribunal. The surrendered land consists of a parcel of 14,670-acres, or approximately two-thirds of the reserve. The ruling notes the federal government had admitted it breached its fiduciary obligation to the Mosquito reserve that rendered the 1905 surrender invalid. According to the decision from Hon. Harry Slade, where “reserve land is affected by an invalid surrender, section 20(1)(g) of the SCTA requires that the Tribunal award compensation equal to the current unimproved market value (CUMV) of the subject lands. The Tribunal must also, under section 20(1)(h) of the SCTA, award compensation equal to the value of the loss of use (LOU) of the lands, brought forward to the present value of the loss.”
