Task Force on Aboriginal Languages and Cultures
In support of Canada's commitment to preserve, revitalize and promote Aboriginal
languages and cultures, the Government of Canada announced in December 2002
that it will contribute $172.5 M over 11 years. The three-phased action plan
includes a two-year extension of the current Aboriginal Languages Initiative,
establishment of a Task Force on Aboriginal Languages and Cultures, and creation
and on-going operations of a new Aboriginal Languages and Cultures Centre (ALCC).
The Centre will be a shared-governance entity operating as a not-for-profit
corporation, composed predominantly of Aboriginal individuals. The Task Force examined and made recommendations to the Minister of Canadian Heritage on the operations, programming and objectives of the ALCC.
