Poilievre proposes plan for First Nations to collect taxes from industry

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will endorse the First Nations Resource Charge proposal in Vancouver, allowing First Nations communities to have more control over resource revenues.
The FNRC would enable First Nations to collect 50% of federal taxes from industrial activities on their land, with industry receiving a tax credit in return. This initiative aims to make resource projects more appealing to First Nations.
Despite some criticisms about lack of consultation, the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs commented that the resource charge proposed by Poilievre is a positive step toward addressing inequalities resulting from Canada's colonial legacy.
