Budget sufficiency for First Nations water and wastewater infrastructure / [written by Nasreddine Ammar]. : YN5-145/2017E-PDF
"In Canada, water and waste water (W&WW) is largely a provincial domain. However, the responsibility for First Nations communities living on reserve falls squarely with the Crown, specifically the Minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs (INAC). The Government’s 2015 Speech from the Throne promised a renewal of the relationship between Canada and Indigenous peoples and the Government’s first budget proposed an end to long-term boil water advisories on reserves within five years by investing an additional $1.8 billion over five years, starting in 2016-17. ... This report analyzes federal spending on W&WW treatment on First Nations reserves. Using data collected from the W&WW National Assessment undertaken in 2011, along with other socio-economic, demographic and W&WW system data, PBO has estimated the costs of upgrading water and wastewater systems (referred to as ”investment needs”) on First Nation reserves. The report also examines the evolution of expenditures over the past decade and where possible, explains how INAC allocates funds"--Exec. summary, p. 4.
