Today, the Framework Agreement has expanded to include an ever-growing number of communities across Canada who are interested in replacing the lands restrictions of the Indian Act with their own land code laws and policies.
Each operational signatory community to the Framework Agreement assumes the full law-making authority and management of their reserve lands, environment and natural resources when they ratify their land code.
Canada ratified the Framework Agreement through the passage of the First Nations Land Management Act, which was assented to June 17, 1999.
We thank you for visiting the newly redesigned Lands Advisory Board (LAB) and First Nations Land Management Resource Centre Inc. (RC) website. We are pleased to offer a full range of training and resource materials to everyone interested in discovering more about the historic Framework Agreement on First Nation Land Management.

“The learning models, framework and rationale outlined in this report support an alternative vision of Aboriginal learning and community well-being. The Holistic Lifelong Learning Models themselves provide First Nations, Inuit and Métis people with an opportunity to articulate and explore—and for non-Aboriginal Canadians to appreciate—the value of Aboriginal lifelong learning as an essential human endeavor that can benefit us all and enhance societal progress.”
"This thesis proposes an integrated framework for organizing information and subsequently acting as a diagnostic and predictive tool for those working in the area of community development with indigenous peoples, but with potential universal scope. Discussion within the thesis utilizes examples and information from work with indigenous peoples in Australia, Canada and New Zealand. The framework is composed of a hierarchy of community development (derived from Maslow's hierarchy of human needs) integrated within a value system, and a hierarchy of cultural influence.
Comprehensive community planning is holistic view of our community and
what our future plans are. It is comprehensive in nature, as it takes every
aspect of our community into consideration when looking at our future. The
CCP enables us to identify what we want for our family, children, grandchildren
and community as a whole.
