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.
