Shuswap Nation Tribal Council

The First Nations Tax Commission (FNTC) is a governance institution established under the First Nations Fiscal Management Act, designed to enhance Indigenous tax jurisdiction and promote economic self-reliance among First Nations in Canada. The FNTC helps First Nation governments develop and maintain equitable property tax regimes, ensuring that communities and their taxpayers reap maximum benefits from these systems. With a focus on creating a competitive investment climate, the FNTC works to fill the institutional void that has limited First Nations' participation in the market economy. By fostering a fiscal relationship akin to that between federal and provincial governments, the FNTC empowers First Nations to take greater control of their revenues and strengthen their governance capabilities.
