Programs and Services for SK Region
INAC's goal is to provide opportunities for First Nations,
Inuit and Métis to more fully participate in and benefit from Canada's
political, social and economic development while accommodating their aspirations
to secure their own place in the Canadian federation consistent with Aboriginal
and treaty rights, and to foster self-sufficient and prosperous regions
in which Northerners manage their own affairs and make strong contributions
to the federation.
To achieve these goals, the department has identified
five program-related strategic outcomes, under the following headings:
- The Government: Good governance,
effective institutions and co-operative relationships for First Nations,
Inuit and Northerners;
- The People: Strengthened individual
and family well-being for First Nations, Inuit and Northerners;
- The Land: Sustainable use of lands
and resources by First Nations, Inuit and Northerners;
- The Economy: Aboriginal people and
Northerners close the economic gap; and
- Office of the Federal Interlocutor:
Strengthened relationships with Métis, non-Status Indians and
urban Aboriginal people to raise awareness of their needs and improve
access to federal services with the aim of improving their socio-economic
conditions.
These strategic outcomes shape policies, programs and
services offered to First Nations, Inuit and Métis, and in the
North, and provide criteria for assessing the department's performance
and progress.
